Recommendations on a place to purchase an extended warranty. And what does it cover? (i.e. engine, trans, clutch, breaks rotors/pads....)

AND

From what I've noticed the gas mileage isn't great. Any tips on modifications that can increase gas mileage and not void the warranty?

Thanks again everyone.
Hope to be a fellow owner by Jan '02

Jason,

Again do some searches to find some answers. A couple other good sites to help with your research are http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lr-discovery and http://roversnorth.com.

That out of the way, there isn't much you can do to a huge lift in mileage. K&N filter has been proven to help with varied results (1-2 mpg for some, none for others). Some also say that running synthetics or performance exhausts (K&N, Flowmaster, Borla) helps as well.

The Warranty is no question

www.roverguy.com

Most comprehensive and extensive I found.

The RoversNorth board is an excellent source for gas mods...etc.

Gas Milage improvements;
1. K&N Filter
2. Synthetic Oil
3. RPI Ignition Amp for distributor models and/or make sure ignition advance is working properly.
4. Magnacor wires and platinum plugs.
5. Set timing on dist models to 10 degrees not 5.
My 94 does 15 city/trailer towing and 18 MAYBE 19 on a long run, no trailer on 89 octane.
