    Radiator leak, where the hell is it coming from?

    By the way... seemed to leak most when that corner of the vehicle was lowest. I.e. parked downhill after driving around.

    Radiator leak, where the hell is it coming from?

    I had the same issue, turned out to be the screw at the top of the radiator. the one that holds the shroud. took it out and put some pasty JB weld (not the quick dry type) put some vaseline on the threads of the screw and put it back together. allowed it to dry at least 16 hours...

    Ebay head gasket kit

    4runner, I bought and used the ebay kit on my 2000 Disco II this past Nov. and on a 96 Disco last aug. No problems to date. (Knock on wood!!) The parts fit nicely and there were even oem parts in the kit. i.e. labelling/part number ID. Good luck with it.

    Strange tachometer

    Give me some input. I know from the posts that the general consensus is that if the tachometer stops working... then the alternator will shortly malfunction. I've checked the voltage at the alternator (output) and it is fine at 13.99 however the tachometer will stop working - usually when...

    Thanks for the quick replies. Chris, How would I go about getting the prom? Do I have to make an appt with the dealer or will they sell it directly to me? I ask because the bulletin states that LR has to authorize this but I am not sure if this information is out of date. Garret, thanks...
