FergusMcK Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Hi folks, Thinking of buying an E reg defender 90. I know the original engine is a TD but it has had the engine replaced with no specifics given as of yet. Ive hopefully attached a photo of the engine. Hope someone can help me out as google is giving me no definitive answer! Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 That is a 11L Defender 200tdi engine, exact same as mine.it's a strong long lasting unit, just rebuilt mine which is just over 24 years old & had done 379.500+ miles. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverik Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 If you can take a look at the engine number, as Land Rover for a certain time frame sold a 200tdi re-power kit, the engine code will often have a S prefix at the end of it, Ralphs is one of those kits and I have one too. irrespective of the prefix, As Ralph says that's a 200tdi, good robust engine. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 engine number is stamped in below the first injector & glow plug on the blocks horizontal face, might need a small wire brush or scotchbrite to remove any muck & a damp rag to make the number stand out more.
