    Buying a Land Rover

    They all have the same 4.6 Liter engine, its just trip and apparence, an SE7 is a 7 passenger Disco, unless your going to haul lots of people I would just get a SE, nicely equipped.

    Shes on the verge of stalling..

    hey disco, could you possibly take pics to show me where the valve is? How do I go about removing it?

    Won't start, need help quick.

    When my disco wont start, it is usually the wiring being dirty, I take out the wires that lead to the distributor, blow on them, clean em out with my shirt, connect everything back, and she starts without a problem. Id also check the wiring on the ignition coil, that gets dirty easily as well..

    Shes on the verge of stalling..

    Ive experienced this problem last year, in traffic conditions, its happening again in traffic/ on red light (sometimes) just rolling not applying gas, or when stopped and holding the brake, the rpms drop extremely low (200- 100 rpm), the engine begins to rumble and shake. The cure to this is to...

    Transmission issue?

    On occasion, the shifter feels really heavy to use, while on some days it runs as light as a feather.. What could be the cause for this? Im also wondering... She's up to 88600 miles now, she gets serviced about every 8k miles, fresh oil, filters, etc. Should I possibly run a fuel injector...

    LoL, Disco I see you run two forums too. Like I posted on the other forums, I forgot to add that I want to keep it strictly to the 3.9L/ 4.0L engine, since they are basically the same.. -Joey, neither do I, im just doing this for the sake of science. ( Science seminar class..)

    ACE/PS Reservoir - bubbling?

    Wow. I misunderstood you. I never experianced that sort of problem, is this something that you just noticed? Is it harder to steer? Especially while parking/ low speeds? When I do take my Disco for a ride ill make sure to look if the same thing occurs. For all you know this may be normal.

    ACE/PS Reservoir - bubbling?

    Coolant warnings for a discovery.. *falls off chair laughing* The car wont give you a hint until you start overheating. I do a coolant check every 1/2 a year just in case I run low. My car had overheating issues in the past which is why im so meticulous about it now. ( Radiator/ and pump, and...

    Fuel Mileage Survey: Discovery

    Hey guys, im conducting a scientific experiment for a major project on how many miles does a person get on 87 octane/ 89/ 91/93/94. On a full gas tank from Full to Reserve light, how many miles do you get on what type of fuel.
