1995 Discovery SE7 with 130,000 miles for $500. I stumbled across it near my house sitting forlorn at a garage. It seemed like the perfect vehicle for my boys to drive to college an hour away once we got it to start and pass inspection. $300 later and they were on their way. I bought it back...

Once I get my hands on it, I'll give a little more detailed review. He said for $.50, it was worth it.

I followed your lead with the same fan clutch. 2000 miles and good so far as well.

I had my son make one of these as a test the other day. I haven't seen it yet, but he seems to think it could do the trick. He used "regular" material, not ABS, so we're both a little curious how heat will affect it on a hot day with the windows up.

I just made a panel out of thin checkerplate and screwed it in place instead. As often as I was having to remove it for issues, it made it easy enough to take on and off.

You've all pretty much confirmed what I thought deep inside (deeper than my wallet...). Thanks. It's definitely better to go with as best as possible when the consequences can be significant.

Has anybody ever used one of these water pumps? It's cheap on close-out on rockauto, but is it worth the gamble? Thanks.

I had a similar run as well. My 95 was not shifting from 3 to 4, changed the fluid and filter and still nothing. I drove it like that for a few months and then one day “bonk” and no forward gears. Reverse was good long enough to get up a hill to a parking lot then it was the flatbed of shame...

PM me a list, and I'll see what I can do. There may be some new plans for my 95, but my friend has another one that may have some meat. As for this: 14cux - AMR4110, do you know what it looks like and where it actually should be located? It gets a little confusing on the RAVE.

I had issues with that olive at one time, and I used this same stuff. It worked fine, but you have to let it cure as per the directions.

I'm heading out to my truck tomorrow. I'll see what I can do for you.

I can't tell if that's a good "finally" or a bad "finally", though I'm hoping it's a good one.

I have a 95 parts truck. If you're not in a real hurry, I can see if can get it out for you. I had bypassed it years ago when the door locks failed, but I think it should still work. Maybe?

If I still had my 95, I'd print that and laminate it. Alas, my 97 is a little different without the distributor, etc. but I'm curious how much so. I haven't owned it long enough to sort through any of that yet. Fortunately.

Contact Will Tillery here on the board. He’ll set you up.
