    1998 Disco Engine Rebuild

    Yes,thanks for the good advice on the valve train. In the course of my research I have come to realize that the valve train including the cam is probably all worn. My fears are head warpage and crank runout. I haven't pinned the temp guage, but I have certainly run it very hot on more than...

    1998 Disco Engine Rebuild

    AC blower fan quits on hot day

    I have the exact same problem and have found the exact same solution. It's not just on really hot days. It also happens on really cold days. In fact, any time the blower is in the high position it might happen. Moving the selector switch to a lower position and then back again will generally...

    1998 Disco Engine Rebuild

    Hi all, I am about to pull my 98 Disco (170k mi) into the garage for some engine work. It's been parked in the yard since the radiator let go 11/09. I bought the new radiator at that time, but when I looked under the hood carefully to see how I was going to install it, I noticed coolant...

    Freakin' Leakin'

    What is the consequence of using PS fluid? My PS groans quite a bit and isn't smooth. I suspect one of the previous owners probably used it because the fluid isn't red. Drain the best I can and refill? Or is it more complicated than that.

    Cruise Control Vacuum Pump, what I learned

    Like (apparently) most of you out there I have had many problems with my cruise control. All the usual suspects and one new one. Over the years, I replaced all the vacuum lines (cracked), realigned the switch on the brake pedal so it works properly. I used procedures (which I think I found here...

    Pass. Power Seat, what I learned

    Some random observations: I had a problem with the passenger side power seat not working in my 1998 Disco. Stupidly, I took the switch apart thinking I could fix. If anyone is contemplating such a move, please don't try it. If you must clean it, don't disassemble it first. The switch...
