    thermostat?

    2000 disco 4.0 115k. I was wondering if this sounds like a stat problem. It started off like this, at full temp while running it blew the top hose off the top of the stat housing. I chalked it up to that I did something stupid like not tightening the clamp when I replaced it oh so many months...

    I found one cheap. They are claiming it is oem. Does any one have a part number so I can compare it to this one?

    I just found an OEM for a buck 25 Now thats cheap. far cry from the stealership. But I still don't want to drop a bean and a quarter on a "I think it might be a" so I'm going to wait for some rover know it alls to say hey stupid. It's the blablabla, dumb newbie. hahaha Thanks Joe

    Well Greg, You know the chances of finding a good used maf. I have read some post of your saying you have successfully cleaned many maf's so I thought i would give it a shot. I just got in from disconnecting the mafs from 2 of my other vehicles and they both died so I think "(think)" that it may...

    Nope, recleaning did nothing. Started with no problem ran for about 30 secs and shut off. Restarted it, it ran rough with SEL on.

    00 dII 100k. Service engine light came on at start. Stalled at idle. Read about the air box and no air filter at all. I put new filter in and cleaned MAF. Cleared the codes and let sit 5 minutes. Still same problem, p0103 and p1884 and stalling (no p1590 code this time). I just cleaned the MAF...

    Doors off

    Bahhh, You get scratched up anyway. At least I do, with getting out and spotting and eventually diving out of the way, and my winch cable always seems to bite me through the gloves. Oh well, to each is own. Did you see that? I'm trying to justify getting whipped by branches lol.

    If you were wondering about Jeeps

    How does my Disco measure up to the Jeep Rubicon? I often wondered this very question. Well it was my pleasure to do some wheeling with my cousin who just got one a few months ago. The Rubi is a very nice off roader, Locker, 32" BF's, electric stabilizer releases and Tera Low. I love the Tera...

    Doors off

    How come Nobody told me the doors come off these things? I was poking around shooting the hinges with grease when it dawned on me that they were on with just clips. So, curious me popped the clips, pulled the pins and unplugged the wires and Jumpin Jeabus it started and ran without a hitch. I...

    Knocking sound when speening up.

    I wonder if it is a bad cat. Bang around on the cats and see if it rattles.

    tranny knocking

    see thats what I'm thinking. A bad flex or a loose TC bolt. I was under it today and can't find access to the bolts. Do I have to pull the starter out? I pulled the 2 grommets from the front and the access from the bottom and rotated the flywheel and Im not seeing the bolts.

    tranny knocking

    I am not positive and I did go under and listen to it with a poor mans stethoscope. It dose sound as if it is coming from the bell area. I listened to the oil pan and the knock sounds residual, same with the pan on the trans, residual. At the bell it is pronounced. Whats getting me is that the...

In gear it sounds fine. recently I had a motor put in and suspect something loose (crossing fingers) so I take it back to him and he calls me back to tell me how much a trans is with labor. What would make...

    lockers

    Is this for off road only? If not, welding would be a bad idea. Personally I would save my money and get a locker that you can disengage when not needed. An auto locker will kill things, a weld or spool will kill things fast.

    Center Diff Lock?

    My 2000 only shows the mentioned 3. If you are afraid to weld (like me) you can build the lever and bolt it on with a nylon nut. You should climb underneath it and feel around to see if the previous owners installed a cdl.

    They are expensive. If your handy you can make your own. There are a bunch of home made cdl's on the web. But to answer your question they are not hard to install.

    Sluggish Wipers

    A motor could do that? Just take a minute to warm up? I did not know that. I've seen them slow or stop but never delayed.
