I posted a while ago about a proposal to create a new group in the
uk.rec hierarchy (proposed as: uk.rec.gps).  I'm not related to, or
have any personal knowledge of the proponent (if anything, he can be a
bit of a PITA judging from other groups), but I'd be interested to

In a rare move of cunning I left my light on the other day and killed the
battery. Anyway, I got it jump started and then charged it overnight when I
got home.
I tried to start it the other morning and it was dead. More charging and I

Anyone in the Leeds (UK) area want to take on board a sad case of neglect?

The missus was talking to my Sister on the phone tonight and she
mentioned their Disco wasn't working (the one we went round the off
road track in Abingdon in the the other day)? ;-(
He seems to think it's the alternator and has booked it into the LR

Hi group, was wondering if anyone had any info or contacts for a device to
attach to your Range Rover or in my case 110, to roll it on the
side.(controlled of course...slowly) This to allow work to be done under the
skirt of Solihull's Matron.

I've heard that oil should be filled in the carburetors of my V8 Def 90-'86.
Does anyone knoes how much and which oil? Oil of automatic transfer boxes?
Kind regards,

I have just bought  4 point harnesses to go with my plush cobra seats  in my
90.
The straps for the lap belts are no problem to fit as i can just bolt them
to the existing seat belt mounts on the floor.

Does anybody have experiences with Biodiesel in the 2002 Defender TD5

I've just fitted a 200Tdi motor into my 90, complete with Allisport
intercooler. The question I have is, while dring normally, ie 10 miles
of A roads, the oil pressure reads 45-50 psi. However on a v long run

recomended in his 'bible' ) and as I have heard that the other company
products tend to win quite a few reveiws I used it. Seems OK; certainly

There is a significant vibration which appears to come from the transmission
on my 1998, 70,000 mile Freelander TD.  The vibration is most noticable
between 1600 rpm and 1900 rpm in 4th and 5th gears when there is a slight
load on the engine such as acceleration or climbing .  The ...

Someone mentioned putting something in with the oil, was it ATF?
Can't remember & just want to shut it up.

After failing to keep to the advice "shiny side up, greasy side down"
on a CCV trial, I have discovered that Tiggrr will leak fuel from its
tank if the angle of dangle is extreme enough.  The leak is through
the breather pipe, and I need a non-return valve to allow air in, but
