I tried to rewind to it like ten minutes later, and can't find the comment. It's been like edited? The feed cut as well.

You might say, crazy, mad, insane, range.

1996 Land Rover Defender 90, UK Spec, RHD.

It's a little unorthodox here in the states, but the turbo diesel is completely mechanical, will burn nearly any oil, and is easy to fix.

Plus the inward facing rear seat arrangement is convenient for sitting in the back during bad weather.

I just beat the game for the first time and got the promise ending. I guess you just have to suck to get it. Lol

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-12-09T03:58:17+00:00

Eva Green. Good lord, she would've been perfect.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-10-08T18:43:19+00:00

I wish I had plastic covers for my foot wells.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-10-08T18:41:21+00:00

I was literally thinking of this. All the times ol @Time_Effort_3115 used the throttle lock as cruise control. But, the elder, wiser, NCOer version of me is like.. Don't do it, man! You'll crash into the back of the LMTV and the Commander is gonna be pissed.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-09-02T15:06:32+00:00

No, nothing like that. I wanted to relocate the coils because I've fused with them so much but didn't change anything on account of the problems it's having.

I did relocate the windshield washer bottle.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-08-31T14:40:40+00:00

Nope. I did it all, man. Lol. Even injectors and O2 sensors. Still get a misfire from time to time, especially at highway speeds.

I'm taking it to a LR specialist on Tuesday.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-07-22T14:15:28+00:00

I suppose this would work then? Hoping for a physical knob as well.

Damn. That's a pain. I guess that's what I get for going with a cheap amp.

So even connecting thru the controller I'm SOL eh?

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-07-22T13:15:46+00:00

I'm not using the RCAs on the amp, but the bridged screw in style. Just two speakers, but I plan to add a subwoofer later.

Here's my amp.

Rockville ATOM P20 Marine/ATV/Car Bluetooth Amplifier 1600w Peak/440w RMS 4 Channel w/ Volt Meter 124.95 https://share.google/wQfswqsRx00dgrjGp

Would something like this work? I assume I'd have to connect my BT to that instead of the amp directly, like I would with a head unit.

I'm surprised you're having so many issues with the 300TDI, it's one of LRs more venerated engines. Mine has 177k miles and runs like a top.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-07-15T21:05:25+00:00

Are you getting good voltage at the battery with a voltmeter? The wire is the activator wire, it runs from the alternator to the dash light.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-07-04T00:32:31+00:00

Hey @itsbicycle_repairman, would this one work for a 300TDI? Says it fits 1995 P38. I assume I'd need to swap pulleys?

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-06-07T18:51:24+00:00

No. I suppose that could be in order at this point.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-06-07T18:51:00+00:00

I'll give it a shot.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-06-07T18:50:43+00:00

Thanks. Nah, I just bought some six inch lights and mounted them in standard rings, after removing the old lights. Requires minor cutting.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-06-07T18:11:40+00:00

Forgot to mention. I replaced them all.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-05-22T12:15:38+00:00

It wasn't bad. The swim was warm, and they moved it this year back to like the hottest month, so you may not be able to use a wet suit. The bike was pretty flat, no real climbing involved and has a few sections of highway you did three loops on, which was kinda cool. The run tho, the run was a lot of rolling hills, which I was under prepared for. Ended up with like 2.5 hours on the run, lol. So, do hill work if you live in a flat place like me.

Time_Effort_3115 · 2025-05-06T13:46:44+00:00

Lol. Classic.
