    In-line Thermostat Setup $65 + s/h

    Hi guys - since I sold the truck I still have this. Never got to try it out. It's the Meziere WN0071 thermostat housing, glowshift bleeder attachment with bleed screw, and a Stant 180F thermostat. All you need is a $10 BMW hose cut up to be complete. I actually bought the hose but ended up...

    Definitive parts list for D2 inline thermostat modification?

    I know, I know "search" Except the threads are getting really congested and I am having a hard time figuring out who used what. I get the Meziere Enterprises WN0071 thermostat housing. I know I need a "chevy v8 180F thermostat" (part number from summit would be AWESOME...anyone?!) and a BMW...

    Head gaskets replaced - 300 miles later water sloshing noise. Thermostat maybe!?

    Hey guys, So I had a HG failure on my '00 LR DII with 152k miles at the time. Now I am 300 - 400 miles later (or so) and everything has been great. Tonight about 1 mile from home I left a traffic light and on acceleration heard the sloshing/gurgling/watery noise on the passenger side of the...

    '00 Center Diff Lock upgrade?

    Ok so since my LR is not exploding and killing itself I might treat it well to some maintenance and upgrades. I was hoping to find out what I need to get in order to have a center locking diff. I researched a while back and I think I read that, basically, "Some trucks can and some trucks...

    Can headgasket pressurize the crankcase?

    Sorry to start another thread but its an abstract question. Mechanic put compressed air in cylinder #1 which had the misfire codes. Turns out its blowing out the pushrod/lifter holes. He's thinking piston/piston rings and I am thinking $$$$$$$$$$$$$ wasted in repair if the next cylinder over...

    Replaced spark plug wires but still P0301 and P0300

    Hey guys - need help. I replaced the spark plug wires and spark plugs (NGK's) and still get P0301 and P0300. How do I go about diagnosing this? Coil packs? Can I move the #1 wire to see if it follows a cylinder? Thanks, Jon I will say - I just threw an extra spark p lug in the #1 wire and...

    Plug wires arc'ing all over

    So I changed the DII's oil and was even thinking about spoiling it and swapping the diff fluid out. Then, on the way home from my fiance's I come to a light with a vibration. Realize I have a misfire. Can't notice it under load but at idle it's there. Sometimes it'd do this if it was real...

    How bad are DII valve cover gaskets to replace?

    I looked at mine - they're leaking pretty nice. But, it looks like a lot of crap needs to be removed to replace. How bad is it?

    Throttle body peeing on the valve cover

    Smelled coolant very strong, heard "pshh...psh....pshh..." when the car came to stop - sound of water hitting a hot exhaust pipe. Fearing a headgasket I popped the hood - top of valve cover is wet and running down and dripping on the exhaust. Anyway - the coolant circulation through the...

    Need help identifying this part ... come have fun!

    Ok so I was topping off my coolant (during my fiasco of R&R'ing my blower motor I topped the coolant off but left the cap off haha oops) and noticed a hose just hanging. It looks rotted and gross and it broke off kind of wildly. So then I looked around for something with the other piece of the...

    Annoying sound from cabin area as I roll to a stop

    So theres something speed-based buzzing when I come to a stop from over on the passenger (right) side of the car as I come to a slow roll. It almost sounded like the CD changer under the seat doing something, but I don't believe it is. I also first thought it was something based on hard...

    Any guides/pictures on replacing window regulator?

    Hi all - My front passenger (right) side window will not go up the last 1/8" or so - crooked too. It also won't go down. I have a brand new regulator ready to go I just haven't done it. I think I'd be more motivated if I knew what I was getting into - not timid I just don't want to take the...

    '00 Disco II blower motor fail

    It never fails! Nice long 10 day holiday break and didn't drive the truck much at all. Got in this morning to go to work and its 22 deg out and I am freezing. I wait for the coolant temperature to come up and turn the heater on - I press the fan speed button 3 or 4 times to bring the speed...

    Disco II roof rack that you can... sit/stand on?

    Hey guys - I am getting into wild life photography. I've been patrolling the Cape May, NJ marshes for bald eagle and raptor migration. I found a beautiful pond down that way but it is entirely surrounded by thick, high grass that you can't practically get through without being seriously...

    I know its probably simple and straight forward but I always like to look ahead. Is there a guide or anything for doing the brakes? I ordered the front and rear rebuild kit from AB. Thanks guys

    Drivers side front defroster in glass not working

    Hey all - Just noticed the other day that my drivers side front window defroster (wire in glass) doesn't seem to work. The passenger side (right side) clears so much faster, drivers side requires the defroster air, the wire isn't doing anything. I know these windshields are real expensive to...
