    Iv got a 1988 110 V8 on carbs with a full length roofrack and 285/75 R15 mud terrains on it... that averages 12-14mpg on petrol (my UK car) Over here in Australia I have a 1990 RRC 3.9i which has a roofrack, 2 inch lift and 265/70 R16 muddies on it...that averages 15mpg on petrol. But being an auto I dont think I tend to drive it quite as hard as the 110.

    yep whack it with a hammer and itl come out, eventually. i cant comment on getting it back in again cos when i put mine back in it was a replacement part brand new from paddocks, but it slid straight in?!

    ive heard that you should use jate rings on the REAR of a defender for recovery as the chassis isnt strengthened like it is on disco/rrc. use the tow bar instead. apparantly it is fine to use jate rings on the FRONT for recovery as it is strengthened there. duno if theres any truth in that though, i think i read it on one of the other forums

    doubt you need a whole new ignition drum, prob just the switch as les says http://www.paddockspares.com/pp/DEFENDER/E...TDI/300TDI.html

    if it is a retro fitted disco 200tdi into a TD or NA 90, then chances are the plugs are wired directly to the ignition switch as there is no relay on the older 90/110s. So unless someone added a relay when they fitted the TDI it wont have one. You know you have to hold the key halfway between IGNITION and START to heat the plugs?
