Too many Discos
Long Time reader First time subscriber.
So from replacing the Crank shaft and cam shaft position sensor in my Disco 2, to replacing the starter in my Disco 1 this community has been so valuable.I feel guilty for not signing up earlier but better late than never?
I have two Land Rover discoveries, One is a 2000 and the other is a 1997. I love them both, but have decided to sell the disco 2000.
I guess I can tell you a little about me herd.
the Discovery 2 was bought four years ago after a winter in Mexico the head gasket was replace as was the roof liner (in black it looks so nice). we bought all new tires and spent the summer in canada replacing odds and end as they came up, I replaced the stereo and all the speakers so the system though not award winging, sound great., The following winter we drove it south.We camped in the back, took 12 days to slowly meander to Mexico which was so much fun. the winter season in Mexico proved that we brought the right rig. at some point when we got back it decided to not start which is when I replace the CPS my self( thank you thread). and it work great for a long while until recently.. crank no start... so its sitting in the yard right now with a good coat of pollen..I think its a ground issue but I'm just a guy and not a mechanic.
The Disco 1 was given to me as it was running so poorly, turned out to be the fluids were non existent and the starter was going. I got that going, replace the spark plugs and Leeds she is running so well now, and for an award for being well behaved I gave it the new stereo treat meant as well.
I will continue to work on them and promise to support my progress with good photos (something that is lacking in any thread you come across).
Thanks so much for your unknowing support over the years and I'm glad to be here and share what I know from hands on inexperience.
