well here it is...
so i bought this 1988 range rover....
it has a lot of issues to work on... it got a loud lifter noice , actually the car sounds like a sweing machine rather than a v8
v8... that reminds me of something- i heared that the classic range rover had a buick v8 in it ...is that true... also for 88's?
the way the car runs now , i would doubt that it could pull a t-bone steak of a plate. a friend told me it is the lifters and that they need adjusting
i am not sure is the car got hydraulic lifter or not... but if it does than that would take care of the adjusting already.
i think it also could be the timing or the injectors... dunno
then... if i decide to 'gun it' , which is impossible anyway, but let's say i really step on the gas pedal... all i get is this lawnmover like rumbling and a tock tock noice...
now the tock tock got me even more concerned. it sounds to me like the cv joint (if one calls it that way in 4x4's), as long as i got a lot of load on it it will make that noice
i think it's either that or the transfer case, since the 4 wheel drive doesn't even engage. my buddies thing it is a loose caliper or a exhaust leak (?)... i dunno
i appreciate any input here
