Does your FL1 bleed screw look like the black plastic one in the picure at the bottom of the page (with the brass screw) ?? If so, it's the same as the one in my D2 ... (even says "Discovery Series 2 and Freelander") ... I replaced my plastic one with a brass one (failed just like described on that web page ... new hose & brass bleed screw to fix it). Brass one cost me around $13 from Karcraft in Sydney (+ a new hose). Fitted the brass one until I get an Enginesaver, or other (EMS1) fitted up ... don't trust the plastic ones !! I caught mine just as it failed ... could have been a cooked engine as SWMBO was driving

If it is the same, then the Enginesaver kit for the Td5 D2 will work for the FL1 ... as long as the bleed screw in the FL1 is at, or very close to the highest point in the cooling system.

Hope that helps a bit.

... and are the FL1 front mudguards really plastic !?? Go on ... ?? Wow!

Kev..

Thanks for that Fluids, yup it is plastic (the bleed screw I mean), I wonder if ALL 4X4 would have the brass ones or would I have to go through Karcraft in Sydney? Actually it would be easier to order it through your link, ALL4X4 charge like there is no tomorrow!!!

i know theres the pleasure/pain thing but you have to draw the line when an act of deviation could leed to a trip to see john hunter to get internal stitches

G'day Jas

Nah rostered off today.
Spent most of it fiddling around with my new tyrepliers. Thought I'd try and learn how to change a tyre.Managed to break the bead but couldn't get the tyre completely off the rim. Ended up wacking myself in the head with a tyre lever Split my head just above my eyebrow - looked like a scene out of Rocky. So I gave it away for another past time
No pics - its too embarrassing Would have made a good youtube video

Gave up the smokes a few months back - not doing all that good but try and keep off them.
