saracenstump Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 hi, i've got one for a 24volt one if thats any help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Degsy Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Hi Ian We have some Military info at work(L.R. main dealer), will have a look as soon as I get time .If we have what you need I will photo copy it for you. Not being picky but has the engine been changed?, it should be a 2.25, the 2.5 was only used later in the 90/110. Cheers Degsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Dunn Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 the land rover is exactly the same as it was in service (except it now has a Halfords battery) 12v 2.25 petrol (wich it drinks!!!) 109 GS thanks for any help!

Dougy FV432 Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Hello Ian, There is a copy of a wiring loom at the back of the lightweight handbook, I know it's not a 109 but it shouldn't be that different. Have you got a particular fault. Have you thought about fitting a weber carb instead of the Zenith (if not done already), meant to improve fuel consumption quite a bit.

Lightweight Nat Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Yes the wiring diagram in the lightweight handbook for the GS lightweight will be virtually identical. some of the dashboard fittings will be different, due to the lightweight effectively having a 2A dash. AFAIK those should be the only differences, as everything else is the same, just the 109 has longer wires for the rear loom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 This is what you want it is from the 1972 User Handbook for 3/4 Ton Series 3 12volt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Degsy Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Thanks Clive for finding that for Ian, it will save me going through a mountain of old stuff in the workshop. Cheers Degsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Dunn Posted February 12, 2006 Author Share Posted February 12, 2006 Thanks to you all for the help I was having trouble at the rear end (before anyone says it .I ment the Landy!) I have wired up a civy 7 pin plug on a lead, connected all the correct wires, but the R/H indicator will not work on the trailer board. I am now going to connect up the NATO 12 pin socket (the 7 pin lead will be kept connected and in the rear locker). 'fingers crossed' thanks again Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Allmey Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 Have you thought about fitting a weber carb instead of the Zenith (if not done already), meant to improve fuel consumption quite a bit. Dougy Have the Zenith replaced or rebuilt; the Webber does give better MPG, but only by virtue of it strangling the engine. You can get away with it on an 88, but (bitter) experience taught me that a 109 doesn't run happily with one fitted. I bought an ex-RAF 109 with a new Webber fitted by the supplying dealer. After a year of poor performance - 50mph max - the Webber was binned in favour of a new Zenith, and the improvement in driveability was remarkable. My 109 Ambulance is currently persistantly showing symptoms of poor tune, and if the 26 year-old Zenith carb is found to be the root cause during this week then it will either be rebuilt or replaced with another - a Webber just isn't in the equation.
