Glad to see the tall guy ED from wheeler dealer still doing car videos ...
That's must be the earliest series 2 disco I've seen Mike, a 1966 on a D plate!!!!!
Must be worth a bob or two then!
Not only don't we have annual inspections or emissions test, but we have no front numberplate's
Britannica Restorations Ltd yes she's looking rather crusty underneath...so what's the number plate all about Mike? Its not a Quebec plate is it?
Looks like an old uk one...
we don't need front plates on - I stuck it on as the bumper was well cracked!
Britannica Restorations Ltd I've just done a quick number plate check and it's from an old Land Rover what was exported in 2010 so I take it it's one you bought, is she still going?
I dunno - Had so many, hard to keep track of!
Mike
Thanx Mike, again a very useful hint - saved for analysis coming up - Cheers Axel
In a way it is a pity it didn't leak! Then it would have shown up quite well!
Mike
:-) yes, but we got it ;-) Cheers Axel
Hi Mike, how much ATF did you put in the 4.0 v8 to get a good result? Looking forward to do the same thing in my discovery 2.
Keep doing what you do and stay as you are! You LEGEND
And thanks a lot for all your work
Cheers Vincent
I ran it at idle full to the mark with ATF - do not drive it thought!!
Thanks Mike, appreciate your quick response. I'll give it a try and let you know
Cheers
Interested about the lifter noise that was cured by the ATF. Was the noise when the Disco was warming up and then disappeared?
There was a constant tapping
Out of interest would you ever recommend putting a very light engine oil instead of ATF in the gearbox?
I chatted with Dave Ashcroft about oils and what they recommend as LR was suggesting MTF which is like a light engine oil
Anyway they suggest regular ATF is good enough for the LT77/R380
However in my snowplough 2a I had I used 0w30 oil in the box as EP90 was too thick in winter - never had an issue - shifted great and didn't bust any bearings
I recall back in the UK in my first Morris Minor, I put EP90 in the box and it would not shift - found out it needed regular engine oil
Is ATF ok to use as a flush in diesel engines?
Yes but do not drive with it in- make sure it is flushed with cheap diesel oil before filling with your good oil
@@BritannicaRestorations thanks.
