Date: Sat, 09 Aug 1997 17:28:25 -0600 From: Rick Grant <rgrant@cadvision.com> Subject: Wheel Cylinders and more First of all a belated thanks to those of you who steered me a _relatively_ cheap source of brake wheel cylinders. So now, I have the whole brake system back together and bled, including the CB master and there is no sign of air at all. I accomplished this with a combination of raised front end, inner tube pressure from the MC end, and suction device at the wheel end. But I have somewhat poor pedal; it travels halfway to the floor before engaging. On further inspection I find that two of the wheel adjusters are worn quite smooth and not only do a poor job of bringing the shoes in contact with the drums, but they also vibrate or slip out of postion. I'd like to replace them but I can't seem to find a way to undo them. Is there a trick to removing adjusters from 10" (88) backplates? They are left hand thread aren't they? Any advice?

Subject: Re: Wheel Cylinders and more
rick, saw a cross on the head of the adjuster , on the front of the plate,
then whack it with a cold chisel. worked just fine, just make sure you have
new ones to replace them. :^)

]Date: Sun, 10 Aug 1997 03:58:37 +0200 From: Nenad Gambiroza <neca@rcub.bg.ac.yu> Subject: Help me, please! Dear sirs from Rover, I am Rastko Radovanovic from Belgrade YU. Igmanska st.11. You are my last chance to slove the problem.I have performed over haul renovation of engine on my Land Rover series IIA from 1968 eng. nd. 5334662, chass.nd.PUS7802/8600016. All operations were performed ad it is described in "Land Rover series IIA repair operation manual" published by Land Rover LTD and "Land Rover Owners Workshop Manual" by J.H.Haynes. All components (new) were porchaced from B.L. dealer in Belgrade and all of them were originaly packed as all other land rover parts. All grindings,undersizing,measuring were performed by specialist assording to these two books. I have placed new liners in cylinder block and them are now as ew.90.47mm in diametar(in bookis 90.47mm).Gap betwen cilinder bore and old but very good pistons is less than 0.05mm measured at top of piston skirt at right angles to gudeonpin.Difference between diametars of piston measured at top and bottom of skirt is les than 0.02mm. Pistons are fitted with new piston rings(standard measurement). Crankshaft is regounded at 0.10 inch undersize and new matching main bearings and big-end bearings are fitted. Camshaft and its bearings and tappets have been measured and they appeared to be all right.Same is with rocker gear (rockers and rocker shaft). Cilinder head is also renoved with new valves,valve guides and oil seals.Valve seats were grinded. Timing mechanism (gear with chain and tensioner) had been cerafully examined and refited.Timing were performed as it is described in book.There was no problems with that, and no problems had occured while adjusting valves and distributor. After complete refitting engine started easily and runned smoothly and evenly. However, engine started to overheat while idling and at slow run. Timing,radiator,water ways and water pump,hoses,carburater and so on,were checked and rechecked.All anclinary components and radiator water pump... were borrowed from car that operates normaly and placed on my car,instead of my components but no improvement reached. Fuel pump (ac type F) is new, exhaust silencer is new but from Iveco program for small trucks. This one is for 2800ccm diesel engine. Fan is oriented properly. When looking through the radiator filler whole a vivid stream of water can be observed. My conclusion is that water pump works. I have contacted several people and serviceman from former and current B.L. dealers here in Belgrade, but they found no mistake. Since it is a practically new engine, I runned it slowly. But in couple of times i runned it faster on short hill (1 mile) and I observed that temperature slightly dropped. Engine had about 3 hrs. of working time and 20-25 miles. Consumption of fuel is about 12-13 litres per 100km. No loses of power were detected except when temperature rises. I never allowed temperature to rise high enough for indicator needle to enter red zone. I am greatful for Your understanding and You time. Sorry for I am not familiar yet with your measurement system, so I used metric while describing. Please, take me out of this twilight zone ! Sincerely yours Rastko Radovanovic P.S. In case that You can't aswer my question now, any other advice or e-mail or mailing address of some other company/service_shop/organisation that could be of ANY help at all, would be greatly appreciated. Thank You again, in advance, Rastko ------------------------------[ <- Message 7 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 970810 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

From: CIrvin1258@aol.com Date: Sun, 10 Aug 1997 01:29:05 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Re: Help me, please! Rastko, The engine timing may be off a bit. Check the grade of fuel that you're using, and adjust the timing accordingly per the manuals that you have (the timing can be adjusted for use with various grades of fuel). Otherwise, if the radiator that you have is known to flow properly, check the carburetor mixture.
