f.cking Christ's fat cock indeed, what a *twat* of a job that was. The
template was wrong for a start, the holes where out by 5mm here &
there. The instructions where in Aus speak & f.cking useless.
Then you find some rust, so you have to go to the motor place a few

It's leaking, but I can't find where, looks more like the sump pan to
me, gonna have to clean it all up once i have fit my snorkel.

Apparently the MOT man does not like the fact that my passenger side
seatbelt wont release if you pull on the catch ie 'like you were hanging
upside down' as i was told.  Is this part of the test, never heard of it
before.

Just going to get some new front brake pads for my 95 V8 Disco. Choice of
Ferodo, Lockheed or LandRovers own.
Any one of them better than the others?
I had Mintex before and didnt seem to stop very well! lol

This has been briefly mentioned in my threads before but i thought i'd
start again since i now have a running engine!
3.9v8 on the inlet manifold and stromberg carbs from the 101 3.5.
Any idea what needles I am looking for if i wanted to continue to use

I need to learn how to weld, as i own a Disco & it's one of those
'tool' moments, come on Derek (eewww) get 'em out for the lads.

Hi, first time here and looking for some advice on a Disco we own that is
currently SORN but has an interesting history.
According to Land Rover it came off the production line on 25/4/90 and was
approximately the 20th V8 to be built. It was first registered by Land

started on a timing belt change and discovered a few bits that we appeared
not to have in hand
1. is a water pump gasket required as part of the process - or does the old

You still after the springs etc of the disco matey? I am gonna get the
kit this week, with a view to fitting in a couple of weeks as we are

I live about 20 mins from Elland road, near the M621, so shouldn't take

New cam, followers, rings etc.

What is best? constant speed or varying amounts? For how long? 10 mins

I'm sure there must be a definitive guide to landrover engine and gearbox
compatibility somewhere on the internet, but I bloody well can't find it!
As far as I know (and have guessed). the LT77 and LT85 (basicly the same but
stronger?) have the same bolt paten as the series (4 ...
