another prob is temp gauge goes up to nearly in red allmost straight away is there another landy swicth i can put in or should i get a good macthing gauge and sender say a smiths etc

squaddie_fox:
i think u can change the temp sender as if i remember right if u put a disco 200 tdi in a defender the temperture guage reads warmer then it should an u can change the sensor but i dont know about 300's but im sure someone will come an tell u soon

biggerlandy:
this is odd just been out looking at temp problem 1, found the y peace on the flow  part of pipe to top of rad and exspantion tank blocked so i unblocked it put it back, then found that thermostat not opening good so as temporay bit i i ripped the iners out of stat so i still had sealing ring put it all back bled it etc and for a moment as i reved engine temp gauge shot down to cold let revs of it came back up reved it again and the same happend it this a couple more times then shot up to just about 3/4 but the engine feels normal

biggerlandy:
is the 200 and 300 stat the same

No, the former is an 82 stat, the latter is an 88 stat. It can cause problems if the wrng thermostat is put in.
