5 inches you must be having a laugh this country gets 2 inches and the whole road network grinds to a halt

about a month ago my fuel pump give up so have just been running lpg since finally fitted a new pump today. The problem now is for some reason it will only run on lpg, fuel pump is running and fuel is making it to the injecters but it just wont fire up on petrol sort of runs on the key when turning over but wont full start but if i switch it back over to lpg it starts and runs sweet. is it possible that i have ruined the injectors by running straight lpg with no fuel to cool the injectors?

A few pics from the last time i went

yeah oppostie the car park entrance if you were coming from exeter race course end it would be a hairpin left then just follow the road down the valley and the farm will be on your left. Is it on this weekend if so may come down for it.

i've got the 2in suspension spacers on mine got them from www.wizardbilt.co.uk

All the electrics for my LPG system are there but i dont remeber there being anything in there on my old tdi

Not stealing your thread but i have a similar problem my glow plug light stays on all the time and the strange thing is it's a V8

Does anyone make de-cat pipes for a Discovery 3.9i V8 or know anywhere that can make 1

Copied across from the GLASS forum. Please help if you can. Please read the following notice from Norfolk County Council and respond ASAP! This is a fantastic lane which is extremely popular with drivers from the local area and much further afield, in an area very badly hit by NERC. There is absolutely no legitimate reason for the authority to close it, this is pure NIMBYism The only way we can stop this closure is to generate masses of objections. It dosen't matter if your local or not but if you are or if you have ever used this lane then please mention it in your response. Don't worry if your not exactly sure what to write/Email, even if you just state that you "object to the proposed closure and believe that the lane should remain open to vehicles" your response will still count. Responses must be recieved before the date stated in the notice or they will not count. The address to write/Email to is contained in the notice below (thanks to my TRF contacts for passing this on so quickly). NORFOLK COUNTY COUNCIL (WEST ACRE, FULLERS LANE) (PROHIBITION OF MOTOR VEHICLES) ORDER 2007 The Norfolk County Council propose to make an Order under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, the effect of which will be to prohibit any motor vehicle from proceeding along the U22064 Fullers Lane from its junction with the U22062 Church Green/Low Road south-eastwards to a point 20 metres north-west of its junction with the C68 Narford Road. A copy of the Order and plan, together with a statement of Council's reasons for making the Order may be inspected at Norfolk County Council, County Hall, Norwich, and at the offices of the Borough Council of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk, King’s Court, Chapel Street, King’s Lynn, during normal office hours. Any objections and representations relating to the Order must be made in writing and must specify the grounds on which they are made. All correspondence for these proposals must be received at the office of the Department of Legal Services, Norfolk County Council, County Hall, Martineau Lane, Norwich, NR1 2DH, marked for the attention of Mrs L Page, by 25th September 2007. They may also be emailed to trafficorders@norfolk.gov.uk. The officer dealing with public enquiries concerning the proposals is Mr A Freeland, telephone 01603 223982. The lane is a UCR on the list of streets (Fullers Lane U22064). The surface is a mix of sand and flint with some stone added in places, typical of this part of West Norfolk and very durable. There is absolutely no damage to this lane, that really isn't the issue (for a change). The only repairs have been at the very southern end where there is a small car park which had some stone added a couple of years ago (notice that the order exempts the last 20M of the lane to allow this car park to remain in use). The problem here is just typical NIMBYism. The number of motors using the route has probably increased (partly because of the three hundred RUPPs lost in the county) and some locals are making a fuss about it. Unfortunately green lane drivers and trail riders just aren't seen as legitimate users by most people. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At the current time LRBoards are not allowing any new members to join so the press dont exploit anything that is being said, but i also read the same post on another open forum and it should'nt be there that was the idea of LRBoards closing the forum to new members.

New 'restricted byways' E-petition. Please sign. Please take a few minutes to sign the 'suspend NERC' E-petition: http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Suspend-NERC/ This petition basically argues that NERC has closed half the rights of way open to recreational motor vehicle use; that, by concentrating motor vehicle use on fewer rights of way, it increases the possibility for damage and conflict with other users; many rights of way are left wrongly recorded; many historic routes have been lost. REMEMBER - the 'antis' have only achieved what they have by making more of a fuss than we did, so the governemnet thought NERC was a vote winner. Only by making ourselves heard now will we prevent something worse in the future. So, even if you have signed one of the others, please sign this E-petition.

I dont know what to say this is a tragic event and my families thoughts are with gresh and his family.

Also is there anyway i can put a manual kill switch on the fuel pump so i can turn it on and off when i run petrol as i had noticed when i run lpg the fuel pump still runs but not pumping fuel so it must just be keep the system under pressure.

nah it didnt run dry was still showing quart of a tank but did fill it up on the way home just to see if it was empty only holds 20 ltrs so not much to drian out. it could be a short will go that direction first

yeah it is efi,will have to drop the tank tomorrow then and have alook cheers

Went up to the exeter pay and play day sunday run it on petrol most of the day as i seem to get more torque than with lpg anyway it died after a few hours so checked it out today and the fuel pump keeps blowing fuses but i cant find the pump can anyone tell me where it is spose to be so i know where to start as the petrol tank has been moved next to the RHR wheel arch and the origanal space filled with twin lpg tanks aswell as twin under sill tanks but have looked all under and cannot find a pump anywhere. sorry missed a few words out it been a long day

Went up to the site yesterday what a great day out well recomended will post some pics later

will def come up and have a look 10am again?

I did check when cold and in neutral and it was still very high but will check again today. The urban myth is very true i had a 92 discovery that the transfer box give out on coming down the motorway but luckly it didnt lock up just loads of noise and alot of juddering with no warning.

Hi i have got a whining transfer box(which i was told about before i purchased the discovery) and was wondering how to check the oil level it is automatic transmission. I have checked the auto box oil and it was filled way over the limit so will drain down to the correct limit this afternoon,but what i want to know is do both auto box and the transfer box share there oil or are they independant if so where do i check the oil level for the transfer box.

Was goin to come by but still running road tyres at the mo.

Ok thanks,Does anyone know of any garages that tune lpg as i understand they are abit thin on the ground.

thanks for the info think i will go for the 235/85r16

Hi im running my96 disco 3.9i v8 on lpg and only seem to be getting 7-8 mpg where as if i run petrol i get 14-15 mpg i know you get abit less out of lpg. I have thought about tweaking the mixture screw but as it runs really well on the gas im worried it might upset things and it will take me weeks to get it to run right again any help or advice would be great. P.S it's a brc system not to sure if it's multipoint or not

Hi im new here I have just brought a 1996 discovery with a 2in lift and was wondering what would be the biggest tyres i could fit without doing any cutting current size on there are 235/70/R16 and was thinking of going 235/85/R16
