hey Davy

mine arrived yesterday, great service......and you wouldn't believe i have had a major coolent loss over the last couple of days, if only i have brought it earlier and had it fitted

my defender is now parked up at MR automotive awaiting the outcome, i checked the water level at lunch today as i thought the temp gauge was playing up, had to put 5L of water into the system

one problem with having a mechanical temp gauge fitted in the thermostat housing is that when you loose water the temp gauge reads low not highmust remember that

a low water alarm would have alerted me straight away

after filling with water i could not find a leak, temp gauge is still reading low

Sorry to hear that Kelvin.

At least you weren't out in the sticks at the time.

Warren, Dwayne and the boys at Mr Automotive will sort it for you, no worries.

The new kit for V8's with the 10mm bleed screw in the plastic "T" piece

Evening.

The first batch of sensors for the new kit for later V8's arrived late last week from the UK.
So all our Land Rover Kits are now tailor made and have screw in sensors which simply replace existing plugs in the radiator or top hose (except for the Isuzu engine)

The orders page on the website has been updated and the new kits are now available. (Part number: ESSLR3)
Engine Saver Land Rover Page

These are to fit the V8 with the alloy radiator with plastic tanks.

The earlier V8's with the all metal radiator shares the same kit as the 200/300tdi (Part number: ESSLR2)

The TD5's use kit part number ESS12TDV

The Aulro discount still applies. ($30 of the rrp) so these kits cost $160 including delivery by express post.

Great kits - installed one on my Disco 2. The screw in sensor is nice. Go get one - great insurance and a very well finished product.

Cheers David.

PS. Got the box in the mail today with the plug:. Thanks mate.

Are these really complex to fit? Do you have to take out the dash?
Sounds like a good idea but I hate the idea of ever having to do anything around the discovery dash it is already broken in a couple of places.

ES Kits

There is no need to remove the dash. I removed the Instrument shroud on my D2 only because i wanted to fit he LED in my line of sight. Some people have fitted the LED in one of the empty switch sockets on either side of the Binnacle. When you fit the wire from the sender unit make sure you route it clear of the Exhaust manifold . I routed mine to the passenger side along behind the ABS and through the firewall via a rubber Grommet to the cabin from there its up to you where ever you want to install the buzzer and LED . My power supply is off the cigar ligher Cheers Porgey
