Subject: S2A - Exhaust manifold bolts
Hi
This maybe a silly question!! - The story is: When i was taking the starter
away i had to loosen the exhaust pipe from the exhaust manifold - only to
see that all but one bolt was corroded (nearly) trough - that made
impossible to but the exhaust pipe back on - my qestion to you guys is: Is
it difficult to change those bolts - and how??
Thanx
Olafur Agust

Subject: re: S2A - clutch problem - SOLVED
Hi
Thanx to those who responded on my clutch-problem-question. The problem was
that the clutch (most likely) grown stuck to the flywheel - i got it loose
by pushing the car in second gear with the ignition key ON so the engine
started and i drove a few hundred meters - until suddenly the *something*
happened - and to my surprise the clutch started to work!!! - what a clever
thing!!
Thanx Olafur Agust (hmo@ismennt.is)

No one should be complaining about the prize of gas until they have heard
the prize here in Iceland - regular 95oktan petrol costs ca.$1.00/liter - if
anyone can beat that - the same is a winner!!! - No really this Must be the
higest prize anywere!! hehe!!

According to people I've talked to in the UK, the 2.25 Land Rover petrol
engine as used in the Series Land Rovers will outlast the 2.25 diesel, all
things being equal. This may not be the case with the current 300 tdi, but
the original 2.25 Rover diesel does not have a reputation for longevity.
However, your general statement that a properly designed diesel will
outlive a petrol engine is true.
As for mileage, I have no figures for Series vehicles, as my Series III has
the gas engine. However, I have friends who have recently purchased
Discoveries, which of course in the US have the V-8. They report getting
about 15 mpg on the highway and perhaps 13 in town. This is less even than
my Range Rover, which gets 18 on the highway and about 15 in town, but the
Discovery has more frontal area. I have been renting Discoveries on all my
trips to England, and they all have the tdi diesel. On the motorways they
get over 30mpg IF you keep the speed down around 55 mph or so. However, at
normal UK motorway speeds of 75 mph-plus, the mileage drops off
dramatically, down to 23 mpg or so. I've never measured the mileage around
town, but it seems to run forever on a tank of fuel. I believe the
advertised mileage around town with a tdi Discovery is in the low 20s. Far
better than the V-8. With fuel prices what they are in England- US$3.50 or
more- and with fuel prices in the US headed in the same direction, the
diesel makes a lot of sense.

It almost disapears when the truck is idle and it increases significantly with higher revolution of the engine. The engine is pulling normally, all gears are engaging normally and the radiator fan isn't hiting anything along its circular movement (I think!!!). The sound seems to come from the back of engine and it seems that anything is hiting anything while doing a circular movement controlled by the engine revolutions. What can it be? If you have any ideas let me know please. Thanks in advance. BTW Thanks for all the hints on my gear-box problems (4th gear poping out when climbing). The problem will be solved after the hollidays trip (if there will be any :-( ) Happy Rovering Joao Parreira ******************************************** * Joao Parreira | jparreira@mail.telepac.pt * Aveiro - PORTUGAL * INTELLECTOR Ltd. * I.T.

I think that it is time to have some kind of .wav files attached to our messages, since many of the technical questions are related to "strange sounds" (The only time my Landie makes strange sounds is when the beast is silent..then I worry :-)) I think it would be great, just driving the truck with a full recording system to be able to catch live the strange noises...
