It is the age old subject......Started with the V8 and then moved onto the Td5..... Some reason, people think that the second you add an electrical device on a Land Rover you can't drive it in damp conditions.... Well, here I am with my V8, taking the plunge, and yes it did drive out the other end!!:



Electrics are fine as long as you don't have them under for too long.

No engine problems - I kept the speed and momentum right to give a good bow wave and the only problem was wet carpets that took a week to dry out in the lounge.


Can you share your anti-divorce secrets with us? Wink

I know that if I left wet carpets in the lounge (even if they were from the def) for a week there would be ructions. 'er indoors doesn't like that kind of thing disturbing the housework she has done.

Mind you that is one advantage of the old series IIs is that there were no carpets.........

Quite simple - I was divorced and living on my own at the time Laughing

Puma ECU is under the bonnet. under drivers seat is fuse box, abs bits etc.

also raise breather for axles, and boxes to add to that prep list. Cheers
