Right will do. I am also a bit worried about the whine from 6th gear, all the others are silent but 6th was a bit of a screamer. Is it normal??:confused:

30MPH or thought you said it went like ...?

 

Nice and easy to tweak the pumps on TDis then readjust them for the MOT.

Never got round to messing with my TD5 disco before the injector wiring loom got oily and I fell out with it.

30mpg was tyred yesterday

nice and easy

60,000miles on the wiring loom

you probably get better MPG out of the Explorer though!!!

disco=30mpg

scammell= 8-10mpg :argh:

they both leak oil. and like mud:-D
