    What RPM's at 100 kph

    My TD5 defender is fitted with a VDO tacho. This tacho only goes to 4000 rpm.
    Just wondering what rev's other TD5 Defenders are doing at 100 kph?
    That is obviously for TD5's fitted with a Tacho
    Mine at 100 k's is dead on 2600 rpm. and idles at 750 - 800 rpm

    thanks

    Mal.

    2600 rpm at 100 is about right for a standard defender.

    The TD5 will go to 4600 rpm from memory. Although why you'd want to I don't know.

    Regards

    Mal, mine's the same ~ 2600, but drops down to ~ 1800/1900 with the GKN overdrive engaged. I'm on 265/75/16. Gav
