    Code P1884, Disco runs weird

    Hey, I just wrapped up a head gasket job on my most recent acquisition, an 02 disco with 140k. Everything seems to have gone fine except that it doesn't quite idle right.

    Slipped sleeve sticking out above block

    Hello all, pulled off the second head on my 00 disco today, and noticed that the third sleeve back on the passenger's side is actually sticking out above the block a mm or 2...i assumed it was the cause of the awful tapping noise the engine made but I haven't heard about the liners moving up...

    Engine Tap and antifreeze + exhaust under valve covers

    Hey all, new to this forum but I just bought a 00 Disco with 174k miles to fix and sell on so I figured it was about time. Anyways, the engine makes a loud tapping noise 3-5 minutes after start up, sometimes longer. The noise will occasionally fade away and disappear for a bit, then come back...
