Tune up help
How in the Hell do you get to the plug wires on the back of the engine (bosch engine)?Changing the plug wires can be done with some patients but is definately a pain. Removing the secondary air injection manifold helps a little, it's the stainless steel tube at the back of the engine. Also, buy...- Disco Squared

o2 sensors
X2 with what Joey said. An O2 sensor socket is a worthwhile investment too. Most auto parts stores have them.- Disco Squared

speedo adjustment
I may be wrong, but I don't think those speedo controllers will work on a DII because the ECU determines speed through all four ABS wheel sensors, not just a transmission sensor. Having a transmission sensor alone would be great because you could correct the speed discrepancy by changing the...- Disco Squared

winch requirement?
You can get rid of the plastic jack/battery box combo to increase room for two batteries. You then need to install a dual battery tray to fasten them down. I think 9500 is probably good. I've got a MM 9000 and it has done well for me so far (stock alternator without dual batteries). If 9500...- Disco Squared

Manual Transmission?
They do, but it's not a U.S. option; maybe Canada:confused:- Disco Squared

Tres Amigos
Thanks for the replies Joey and Chongo. I think I'll go ahead and try the shuttle valve repair kit and then bleed the system to see if it fixes the problem. I would spend more money on gas driving to the nearest stealership than the cost of the repair kit. :argh: the price of gas! Chongo, is...- Disco Squared

Tres Amigos
Last weekend I was working the ETC pretty ******* my DII during an off-road adventure. I got the 3-amigos after a difficult hill climb. I tried cycling the ignition switch a few of times, but it seemed to be a hard ABS system failure, the lights have stayed on solid since. So far I have...- Disco Squared

Steering Gets Very Difficult!
This may be a silly question, but have you checked the steering fluid level? The cost of fixing it depends on what's really wrong, all we can do is speculate possible causes, so don't start pricing parts until you know whats broken. Your problem could be as easy as a serpentine belt slipping...- Disco Squared

Steering Gets Very Difficult!
Hmmm...just a guess, but maybe it's a C/V joint locking up. That would be the only steering component that is effected by speed.- Disco Squared

cruise control
You've checked everything I would check. If the switch light comes on, power is being sent to the cruise control ECU. The cruise control ECU does have fault codes, but can only be read with a LR testbook. Seeing that you have power to the system, and the vacuum actuator is good, I would guess...- Disco Squared

kinda new got some questions
IMHO--It's and older vehicle with some miles on it, so things are going to start wearing out regardless of preventive maintenance. The good news is you have a solid truck worth keeping up, just get used to the fact that it will need an occasional repair. You kept it well maintained so the...- Disco Squared
