Just get a JK Unlimited Rubi. The 2dr are too short for decent road and trail driving IMHO. And the V6 is a better option when buying used.

Nope and precisely

Bad user [emoji56]

The point is they ARE worth that these days.....hell, if we knew then what we know now.....

Having owned 2 x Rover V8s, I'd ache for a BMW M57

I've never seen an ugly Corvette....

Ryobi has a factory repair shop in Midrand

Wrong

Spitronics or Gotech should be able to do the job.

Sorry, I thought your career was outreach projects.

Then why in God's name did you go buy crap?

Thanks for clarifying. Loss of power as well as knocking noises with a cam belt engine means potential trouble. The belt should be replaced every 100,000km on average. Also, the wear and stretch...

And apart from the fact that you NEVER sell a Defender............

WTF itch was he scratching?

And at one stage you could barely give them away..........

Yep, goedkoop koop is duurkoop. Philips is my go to brand. Osrams fail on dirt roads.

I don't want to sound like a broken record, but I recommend getting an independent workshop to do that.

The last thing you need is an injector broken off in a head. And you'd need to code the new...

If you can still find that old Range Rover gear set.............

T-case ratio is 1.211

Ashcroft sells a 1.1 ratio gear. This will however only drop your revs by 300rpm @ 120 km/h.

Fastest, cheapest solution for long distance cruising is larger diameter...

Symptoms tell me crank position sensor...........

Good idea.

And who wants a Ford Transit engine with a dodgy transfer case shaft anyway? >:D

Doesn't Volvo use VW/Audi engines?

I have a 3000W gennie. It dies if you run a standard kettle off it.

Those numbers on the side are bulldust in my opinion. Power factor of 0.8 is wrong, I reckon closer to 0.6.

You won't find ANY Defender parts anywhere.

I've seen guys buying up the wrecks and rebuilding them, it's an insane market at the moment.

OK, I'll bite.

1) how do you know what is wrong with the engine?
2) It is probably the cam chain and tensioners
3) if you aren't aware that most engines of that era already used hydraulic...

No diff lock on that.

I have an unused Unlimited soft top in the Classifieds......[emoji56]

Can't help, I have a dedicated Garmin. I hate fiddling with smart phones and cradles and crap, and we just upload all our music to the HDD. There is an Aux Input so you can run a USB to 6mm Coax...

Bad photo viewed on a cell phone, as mentioned. They are all the same.

Very rare and sought after by the UK importers.

Probably the best engine ever fitted to a Defender.

Yep, you need the proprietary readers.

Good place to start reading:

Some have a bulge, some have a dish, some are flat.

Depends on fuel type, fuel delivery technology, target compression, turbo'd or NA, etc.

Most Direct Injection diesel engines have dished...

Why not just take it to Overland Worx?

Quite a few with SFA conversions..........

Yes, most gauges lie.
