    Solex fuel issue

    Have a 40PA10 Solex on my 67 SIIA and I have a question for the group. when the truck sits for a while (sometimes up to 4-5 weeks) without being started, I have difficulty starting the truck. I have noted that upon removal of the carb top, the float bowl is dry as a bone. I will fill it with...

    Frustrating Cruise Control

    Hey guys, just curious but with a non functional CC of my own, I have checked all the stuff you guys have gone through (although I don't know how to verify the module is either good or bad) and I keep coming back to the switches on the steering wheel. I even swapped the button on the dash that...

    What is a good gun forum?

    Hey Robert, Yeah I have a 556 SWAT with a Trijicon ACOG and a 556 pistol (just bought that) with a EOH 551 (got a deal on it). I don't use the standard Sig mags however, but have gone to the Magpul mags with the better spring follower. They seem to work much better, not that I ever had any...

    Electric fans not working

    If you decide to replace them, as I have had to do on every Disco I have owned or own, get them from Will Tillery or Paul Grant. I bought fans from them, and they have all been good quality, and the price is always right. phil 67 Series IIA 94 and 97 Disco I

    no fuel pressure

    Have you had a lot of rain, or been driving the truck through puddles, etc. cause it sounds like the ECU under the hood may have gotten wet. If so, you need to take it out, dry it off (by taking it apart), then sealing it up, so this doesn't happen again. many threads on this site about sealing...

    Crankshaft Position Sensor Adventure

    Ok folks, here's the story, and you tell me what you think has happened. Couple of weeks ago, I parked the 97 Disco after driving about 280 miles to a job site, and returning home. No issues, no problems, no bumps, jars, nothing. Next morning I go to take the boys to school and the truck won't...

    Just for fun...

    I would have to say the looks that the truck gets. Since it is the only one of its kind in town, and right hand drive to boot, when they see it, they look to the driver side, and see either the dog, or one of my sons and really do the double take. There I am, smiling from the driver seat, on the...

    My New Addition - 67 Series IIA

    I do like them both, but have thought recently about going back to the originals, also taking the paint back to a bronze green. Cost of returning the truck to original may be the single limiting factor, as well as the time. Right now, I am just enjoying owning and driving a Series truck...

    thanks Go4Lo, it came that way. Has taken me a while to get used to it, but I'm good with it now. Sure can't miss it coming down the road. Sort o' like a hunters vest for a truck. phil

    Nirvana = 'a dry ECU' - got clever ideas?

    Lutz, My that is quite the contraption, but bottom line, if it works, it's great. You may be in line to succeed Rube Goldberg as "Rover Creative Genius". Let us know how it turns out!!! phil 67 Series IIA 94 and 97 Disco I

    Nirvana = 'a dry ECU' - got clever ideas?

    I have only recently began using the Strike-Hold. Removed the ECU, cleaned the outside, unscrewed one side, drenched the interior with SH, closed up, unscrewed the other side and repeated. Have only done this once, and the results have been: No return of rough idle on startup, starts and runs...

    Nirvana = 'a dry ECU' - got clever ideas?

    I opened my ECU up and sprayed it down with "Strike-Hold". I also sprayed the connecters and all other electrical components under the hood. No problems with rain and high humidity starting/ rough running issues since. phil 94 and 97 Disco I

    97 Disco I Question

    Thought I would run this question by the forum to find out what ya'll think. Everytime I fill up the 97 Disco with gas, within about 30 minutes, I throw an 1177 code (Maximum Negative FMFR Correction Fault). I clear the code, and then it repeats the next time I fill up. Any thoughts on this...

    94 Distributor Cap Question

    Hey PT, I have one of this model on the truck currently (with no broken plastic) and have used them in the past with no problem. But I honestly think they (Britparts) have some quality issues, and that AB got a bad lot. I'll hook it up and see what happens. thanks guys phil
