    RPM at 55 MPH

    I don’t think it’s locking up. Have to figure out why now.

    RPM at 55 MPH

    97 Disco 1 automatic trans standard tires P235-70R16. What RPM do you see at 55? Mine is over 2000 and seems high.

    shakes

    What happens if you raise the RPMs and pop the clutch? Does it grab immediately? Shudder? Yeah I know it?s a Disco so it won?t smoke the tires...but it might give a clue about a clutch problem.

    Replacement Radiator

    Don’t you have a local radiator shop? I took my original in and he totally cleaned it inside and out. It looked like new and I have been running it over 5 years now.

    No Gauges

    Take something like a hammer hand!e and start tapping around to see if you can find where tapping will make it change states. That's my first try for finding intermittents.

    '96 D1 - Front O2 Sensor replacement

    I used the O2 socket but ground it flat on a bench grinder. It is flared for some unknown reason and likes to slip. I could get it to bite then. I've taken the coil pack out enough times that it takes me 2-3 minutes. It makes getting to the connectors so much easier IMHO. Mark your wires once...

    Driver door lock plastic ring

    Printed one in ABS with 100% fill this morning and installed it. Seems like it was pretty strong and will at least last until I can order one. I always appreciate it when someone is kind enough to post the part numbers and finish a thread so others can find it later. Thanks

    Having three Disco 1s I bit on the Lynx for $350 delivered. Looks like I'm the only one. If you need a keyfob programmed for a Discovery I in NW Ohio look me up.
