RE: [biofuel] Range Rover '89 TDi conversion
Malcolm- I am interested to hear about your RR with the tdi. I was told that wasn't really possible. Most people have told me you need a Defender or a Disco I. I currently have a 91 RR, but it isn't in the greatest shape. I would like to see if I could get it to run off of ethanol though. If you don't mind, shoot me a mail and let me know how the conversions went, cost (if you don't mind sharing that stuff!), and you experience with the tdi. thanks for the mail! --rawls -Original Message- From: malcolm maclure [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2002 10:14 PM To: biofuel@yahoogroups.com Subject: [biofuel] Range Rover '89 TDi conversion Dear Rawls, I saw your post on the Biofuel group. We have a G reg RR, a tdi conversion (from a 4.9 petrol) I'd love to chat. I'm very interested in biodiesel ethanol production use! So do get in touch!

Re: [biofuel] Range Rover '89 TDi conversion
Rawls, Not sure where you are, but I know a guy who's installing a 2.8 (?) BMW 6 cyl. turbodiesel in a Range Rover - the BMW 524 and 528's in the mid-80's that had the turbodiesel used it with the same ZF automatic that the Rangies have. I've seen entire 524's on Autotrader for less than $3000, and Ford also installed the BMW turbodiesel in some Lincoln Mark VII's in the mid-80's, and these engines are out there in junkyards - often with low mileage, from cars owner by folks who never went anywhere. Supposed to be a good engine - and the Ford angle makes parts availability good - although BMW dealers can get everything too. The Ford workshop manuals are supposed to be better.
