    Rovers North 300 Tdi AC line

    Go to a thermoking and ask them to fabricate a hose for you.

    Main harness 300 TDI

    I like the post-97 spec harnesses like I assume the OP has. I think autosparks only sells the old rubber and bullet style pre-96 type.

    IP Fuel Leak

    Check out this old post of mine for a better visual. In this case I took the pump out, but I’ve also done it in-situ with the coke bottle trick. https://nas-row.com/index.php?threads/what-have-you-done-to-your-defender-today.4/page-23#post-24997

    IP Fuel Leak

    It doesn’t have to, but it makes the o-ring replacement easier. If you’re not prepared to re-time the pump though, then it makes everything harder.

    Top dollar for a '97 NAS that needs...?

    Glad to hear this. I’ve been noodling on how to do a “weekend frame swap” for a few years now. Maybe we could get so,e guys together and do that when the time comes?

    Bought a 110: immediate non-start

    My first suspicion is a hopelessly clogged fuel filter but once that’s verified good then I’d shift my attention to the lift pump. If you have the style with a slot screw on top then there is a little cleanable screen under the cap - carefully pry that out and clean it without getting gunk...

    Building the perfect 90

    Fair, but I think Keswick is one of those good classic colors.

    Garage Condo - Mind the Gap

    One of the decorative elements that I was most excited about finally got installed, these are “Featherbeams” from a company of the same name. All the iron work is made from grey-molded PVC, the same stuff you can find in white at Home Depot for house exterior trim/moldings etc. The Featherbeams...

    Garage Condo - Mind the Gap

    I made more progress on getting things put together and organized last summer but didn’t update pix. With the mirror hung in the bathroom, I finally have one full complete room. The kitchen and living room space is finally mostly clear of boxes and random crap so it can be somewhat enjoyed. I...

    Looking for a new DD - must be AWD/4WD RRS/LR4/LR3/Wagons

    Double down on JLR and get one of the XF Sportbrakes that flopped here from 2018 to 2020. Just leave one for me.

    More HP.

    Allisport turbo kit, bigger exhaust, and turn up,the fueling at the pump. The 300 will be smoky but will give almost v8 performance feeling due to substantially increased drivability. It’s good enough you might want to switch to a 1.2 transfer case. Looks a little pricey at first but hella...

    Tips on installing new Fuel Injection Pump

    If you pull the pump off you have to re-time because there is no way to hold the pulley in position while it is unbolted from the pump. You can’t get the pump out without removing the pulley. Additionally, the pump in the proper engine resting position (TDC) is ”on-cam“ and the shaft will...

    Legacy NAS vs. New Osprey Build

    Metaphysical and epistemological questions aside, it’s typically preferable to buy a truck from someone who doesn’t cause you to consider metaphysical and epistemological questions.

    Defender 90 NAS - rear a-frame ball joint replacement question

    I just use a drift and hammer on the big nut if I’m replacing it. If it’s really bad you can dremel down opposite sides and break it.
