Tdi conversion parts
MTyrrell:
Went to pick the engine up this morning just need to fit it now \:D/ \:D/ \:D/
I need to find a way of getting it out the back of the landy to give it a clean before I fit it., time to start being nice to my boss so I can use the stacker truck I think.
Interesting point about the temp sender. Out of curiosity what’s the difference between the sender on the old 2.5 engines and the TDi to give a high reading dose the TDi run hotter?
Xtremeteam:
the difference between the sender's is the thread,on a def tdi it has a coarse thread & on a disco TDi it has a fine thread,cant remember who i was talking to about this the other day but thats the differance,If you buy a tims capillary guage it "should" come with a few adapters to fit the fine thread

Do'h already said that above
the senders are matched to the guages,if you had the time & patience you "could" buy/beg.steal.borrow all the fine threaded senders that landrover make & eventually find one that fits & also gives the correct movement,But i aint got the patience or time lol

I've just bought a Tim electronic temp guage which I'll fit on Saturday, I'll let you know what it's like.

Fitted the Tim temp gauge, runs around 90 degrees and all working fine. Have a tiny slight leak from the coolant sensor, I'll keep an eye on it and re-seal if necessary, apart from that, been driving the 90 all weekend and everything is good!
