    Brake Pad Opinions

    RE: pads -- I put EBC Green Stuff pads on the front about 5 months ago, and they are great! Hardly any wear yet, no noise, no pulsating, not a single problem. They also (IIRC) about 2/3 the cost of OEM.

    New Problems

    I was lucky, it only took running a knife blade along the edges to get it to come loose. Hmmmm....try using a small screwdriver and wedging it in there and levering it off. Loose metal in the oil is not a good thing. Hopefully this will help you clear out the pan and see what else is in...

    New Problems

    Drain oil, drop pan, clean pan, replace pickup tube, refill oil. You don't have oil in the top end of your engine. It's probably due to deposits and sludge blocking the good oil from going into the pickup tube.

    Plugs? Injectors? Plug wires?

    Bought a Factory brush guard for my D1

    Get big bolts, and some nuts to match them. You use existing holes in the frame horns. Have another person there to help you line it up.

    Vibration Question

    That is from the LR Workshop Manual.

    looking for a discovery which one

    Dude, that's a lot to ask. There are plenty of problems with both Series 1 and 2 Discoveries. Even within Series 1 there are differences (96-99 have distributorless ignition and 4.0V8). My suggestion: Read a lot of the threads here, and you'll see a pattern in problems. Look in your...

    Gallery Issues

    Sam, I'm being told I don't have access to add a registry. Can you make it so I can add my truck to the registry? Thanks! Andy

    O2 Sensors

    Try www.discountbritishparts.com -- it's the same people. There are ways to splice in 4-wire O2 sensors, although I think that's had mixed results...was that you, Joey, that tried doing that? Can you change just the fronts, or just the rears, so it's not such a wallop on the pocketbook?

    Wiring

    Use the "A" pillar -- tun them tucked underneath or mask them with tape and/or sealant. When I'm not so drunk I'll think of what was used when it was posted on another site.

    winch with bearmach skid plate

    For that price I'd get the discreet mount and try it...it just might fit with some "persuasion" (bigass hammer) :biggrin:

    winch with bearmach skid plate

    Looking at the pictures, I don't see how you'll have room. There are, IMHO, two problems with those discreet mounts: (1) They end up down in the muck if you get buried (assuming muddy trails and not Utah style slickrock) (2) They put a very expensive accessory down near obstacles.

    Interesting problem...

    I'll post up with an update. My miss is over rich though, which made me think from the beginning it was inadequate spark (no problems with air system).

    Interesting problem...

    So, having cleaned the oil pan and replaced the spark plugs, which cleared all codes mentioned in another thread...something was bound to happen. Today I left from a camping/wheeling trip about 200 miles from home, and after ten miles (give or take), I began to have a severe loss of power and...

    Instrument Cluster isnt lit anymore when lights are on?

    It's possible it's a bulb, but check other, strange fuses -- like, the hi-beam / low beam fuses, the brake light fuse, the radio fuse. Might as well check 'em all...then post up and let us know if anything changed...

    How hi can I go

    Rovertym makes tall springs. You'll also need to look into your pinion angle and shock length, and cutting sheetmetal to fit bigger tires under there too...

    Replacing plugs & wires - need advice

    96 and newer are distributorless ignition -- I am pretty sure it's called GEMS for all models including DIIs. It's nice not to worry about the dizzy but getting it to start after getting the engine wet is not as easy as drying the distributor and firing it up. Just make sure the each of the...

    extreme vibrating..what could be the cause?

    Could be: - Steering/Suspension related (bushings, panhard rod, misalignment, etc.) - Horrible engine malady causing it to run so rough and misfire enough to shake the entire engine - Out-of-balance driveshaft - Differential issues (although not likely) - Tires suddenly gone waaaaaaay out...

    Replacing plugs & wires - need advice

    Just did it on my 96. Get as much of the air intake / MAF / plenum off and/or away from the plugs as possible, use a spark plug-sized socket (13/16?) with an extension, and get to it. It's not so difficult as to make it worth $100 in labor. Also, there is no distributor on your truck -- and...

    Code P1316

    You have to have the code cleared -- go to Advanced Auto, Checker, Autozone, etc. and have them clear the code for you. Then check a couple days later to verify that it worked. I just cleared P1316 with spark plugs too -- must be contagious! :biggrin:
