I thought the oil filter was loose, but it was not. I noticed it looked like it was coming from on top of the filter housing{adapter}. Could it be the front seal? If so is it a major job? Thx for any response.
Thx, for the advice on buying an '04 as opposed to an '03. I think I will take the advice of the guru's of the board and wait until I can get an '04. One question; I must have fallen asleep when we discussed the difference in the CDL between the '03 and '04, could you please clarify, thx again...
My '96 is getting old and ragged and I really want to move up to the 4.6 engine, about all I can afford is around the '03 era. Any advice would be appreciated. thx, Ron
I have a strange question, I had to get gas and the only station around, late at night, etc., and I noticed as I was filling up there was a sticker on the pump that said something about the fuel might contain "gasahol" or something like that. Before you start laughing, no it was not diesel...
my alarm is doing strange things, like going off when just opening the door, etc. I was told by someone that it might be a week battery, is this possible??? Thx, Ron
I have a 96 disco and the alarm does some strange things. when opening the truck, it will lock back up and the alarm sounds off. This is intermittent and I stand there waiting for it to happen and my nerves are starting to unravel. I read a post that it might be a weak battery, the battery in...
We finally had a bunch of rain, here in L.A. and where my son plays baseball it was all wet and muddy, the good kind of red clay stuff. So, after practice we went out and tore it all up and when I got home the white, D1 looked fabulous!! Something out of a commercial, perfect wheel arch patterns...
I always knew rovers were tough, but this has sold me. My stepper motor has been acting up and before I got a chance to clean it, my wife used the disco to go to pick up the kids from school. I get a call from her and I hear what seems to be an ultra-loud engine screaming, in the background. She...
I read a post about adjusting the door locks, but can't seem to find it again. The problem is that when you pull on the handle, the door lock seems to move down a bit and locks the door. You have to pull up on the door lock and then the handle to open the door. If you are on the outside, you...
I have a weird one for you guys. My battery light came on a couple of days ago and now my tach just died. I am showing only 11.5 volts with my ohmmeter when charging, but when I shut-off the engine the battery is showing 12.1. It has been consistant throughout the day, and I thought that as I...
My '96 D1 insulation under the hood is starting to fall apart and I was wondering if I really need to have this installed. I know it is a dumb question, but maybe there is some valid reason why it is there. thx, Ron
I just changed the power steering pump in my disco and while I was under the hood I checked out everything. I noticed some cracks developing on my fan blades and was wondering if anyone has installed an aftermarket fan ( flex-a-lite, etc) and was it pretty straight forward or did you have to...
My truck left me stranded for about an hour today, the key goes in, but won't turn. I tried lubing it up awhile back and that worked for 6 months, today I finally got it to work by wiggling it and turning at the same time, but I think it is time for a new ignition. How hard is it? Where can I...
My power steering pump is making terrible noises when first started, it will quite down after awhile. I guess it is on it's last leg, is it possible to rebuild these units or do you just get another one? thx, Ron
So I was finally successful in getting the t-case plug loose, 1/2'" drive ratchet fed in from above works great, then with a persuader pipe and all my weight it finally broke loose. Now the unbelieveable part! there was always a kind of hum with my truck since I bought it and the guy says, "It...
I am having a bitch of a time getting the fill plug loose, is there any cover I can remove to refill the t-case? Luckily I took your guys advice and did not drain it before making sure I could get the fill plug loose!!!! Thx in advance, Ron
For you guys that get really deep or anybody for that matter, we got turned on to this stuff at work for our aircraft, that were having problems with moisture in cannon plugs and other areas that would get wet and cause havoc with certain systems. After we started using it all the problems went...
I know that I read some posts on how to take out the slop in my steering, but I could'nt find it in my search? If anybody knows the procedure please reply, thx in advance, Ron
in a couple of months I am going to start shopping for a disco II, my '96 dI is getting old and I really like the newer SE7 back seats, any comments on years or what to look for will be a great help. THX, Ron
