INTRODUCTION

, .!I,..
I:I.

This Workshop Manual covers the Land Rover Ninety and One Ten range of vehicles. It is primarily designed to
assist skilled technicians in the efficient repair and maintenance of Land Rover vehicles.

Using the appropriate service tools and carrying out the procedures as detailed will enable the operations to be
completed within t h e time stated in the 'Repair Operation Times'.

The Manual has been produced in separate books; this allows the information to be distributed throughout the
specialist areas of the modern service facility.

A table of contents in Book 1 lists the major components and systems together with the section and book numbers.
The cover of each book details the sections contained within that book.
The title page of each book carries the part numbers required to order replacement books, binders or complete
Service Manuals. This can be done through the normal channels.

REFERENCES
References to the left- or right-hand side in the manual are made when viewing the vehicle from the rear. With the
engine and gearbox assembly removed, the water pump end of the engine is referred to as the front.
To reduce repetition, operations covered in this manual do not include reference to testing the vehicle after repair. It
is essential that work is inspected and tested after completion and if necessary a road test of the vehicle is carried out
particularly where safety related items are concerned.

DIMENSIONS
The dimensions quoted are to design engineering specification. Alternative unit equivalents, shown in brackets
following the dimensions, have been converted from the original specification.
During the period of running-in from new, certain adjustments may vary from the specification figures given in this
Manual. These adjustments will be re-set by the Distributor or Dealer at the After Sales Service, and thereafter
should be maintained at the figures specified in the Manual.

REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENTS


When replacement parts are required it is essential that only Land Rover parts are used.
Attention is particularly drawn to the following points concerning repairs and the fitting o f replacement parts and
accessories:
Safety features embodied in the vehicle may be impaired if other than Land Rover parts are fitted. In certain
territories, legislation prohibits the fitting of parts not to the vehicle manufacturer's specification. Torque wrench
setting figures given in the Repair Operation Manual must bc strictly adhered to. Locking devices, where specified,
must be fitted. If the efficiency of a locking device is impaired during removal it must be renewed. Owners
purchasing accessories while travelling abroad should ensure that the accessory and its fitted location on the vehicle
conform to mandatory requirements existing in their country of origin. The terms of the Owners Service Statement
may be invalidated by the fitting of other than Land Rover parts.
A11 Land Rover parts have the full backing of the Owners Service Statement.
Land Rover Distributors and Dealers are obliged to supply only Land Rover service parts.

POISONOUS SUBSTANCES
Many liquids and other substances used in motor vehicles are poisonous and should under no circumstances be
consumed and should as far as possible be kept away from open wounds. These substances among others include
antifreeze, brake fluid, fuel, windscreen washer additives, lubricants and various adhesives.

FUEL HANDLING PRECAUTIONS


The following information provides basic precautions which must be observed if petrol (gasoline) is to be handled
safely. It also outlines the other areas of risk which must not be ignored.
This information is issued for basic guidance only, and in any case of doubt appropriate enquiries should be made of
your local Fire Officer.

GENERAL
Petrol/gasoline vapour is highly flammable and in confined spaces is also very explosive and toxic.
. .. When petroI/gasoline evaporates it produces 150 times its own volume in vapour, which when diluted with air
. .... becomes a readily ignitable mixture. The vapour is heavier than air and will always fall to the lowest level. It can
readily be distributed throughout a workshop by air current, consequently, even a small spillage of petrol/gasoline is
potentially very dangerous.
3
lo1I
Always have a fire extinguisher containing FOAM CO? GAS, o r POWDER close at hand when handling or draining
fuel, o r when dismantling fuel systems and in areas whcre fuel containers are stored.
0
Always disconnect the vehicle battery BEFORE carrying out dismantling or draining work on a fuel system.
Whenever petroVgasoline is being handled, drained or stored, o r when fuel systems are being dismantled all forms of
ignition must be extinguished or removed, any hcad-lamps used must be flameproof and kept clear of spillage.

NO O N E SHOULD BE PERMITTED T O REPAIR COMPONENTS ASSOCIATED WITH PETROL/


GASOLINE WITHOUT FIRST HAVING H A D SPECIALIST TRAINING.

FUEL TANK DRAINING

WARNING: PETROL/GASOLINE MUST NOT BE EXTRACTED OR DRAINED FROM ANY VEHICLE WHILST
IT IS STANDING OVER A PIT.

Draining or extracting petrol/gasoline from vehicle fuel tank must be carried out in a well ventilated area.
The receptacle used to contain the petroVgasoline must be more than adequate for the full amount of fuel to be
extracted or drained. The receptacle should be clearly marked with its contents, and placed in a safe storage area
which meets the requirements of local authority regulations.
WHEN PETROWGASOLINE HAS BEEN EXTRACTED O R DRAINED FROM A FUEL TANK THE
PRECAUTIONS GOVERNING NAKED LIGHTS AND IGNITION SOURCES SHOULD BE MAINTAINED. fi--
k.
FUEL TANK REMOVAL
On vehicles where the fuel line is secured to the fuel tank outlet by a spring steel clip, it is recommended that such
clips are released before the fuel line is disconnected or the fuel tank unit is removed. This procedure will avoid the
possibility of residual petrol fumes in the fuel tank being ignited when the clips are released.
As an added precaution fuel tanks should have a PETROUGASOLINE VAPOUR warning label attached to them
as soon as they are removed from the vehicle.

FUEL TANK REPAIR


Under no circumstances should a repair to any tank involving heat treatment be carried out without first rendering
the tank SAFE, by using one of the following methods:
STEAMING: With the filler cap and tank unit removed, empty the tank. Steam the tank for at least two hours
with low pressure steam. Position the tank so that condensation can drain away freely, ensuring that any
sediment and sludge not volatised by the steam, is washed out during the steaming process.
BOILING: With the filler cap and tank unit removed, empty the tank. Immerse the tank completely in boiling
water containing an effective alkaline degreasing agent or a detergent, with t h e water filling and also
surrounding the tank for at least two hours.
After steaming o r boiling a signed and dated label to this effect should be attached to the tank

SPECIFICATION
Purchasers arc advised that the specification details set out in this Manual apply to a rangc of vehicles and not to any
one. For the specification of a particular vehicle, purchasers should consult their Distributor o r Dealer.

The Manufacturers reserve thc right to vary their specifications with or without notice, and at such times and in such
manner as they think fit. Major as well as minor changes may be involved in accordance with the Manufacturer's
policy of constant product improvement.

Whilst every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the particulars contained in this Manual, neither the
Manufacturer nor the Distributor or Dealer, by whom this Manual is supplied, shall in any circumstances be held
liable for any inaccuracy or the consequences thercof.

- Special Service Tools
The use of approved special service tools is important. They are essential if service operations
are to be carried out efficiently, and safely. The amount of time which they save can be
considerable.
Every special tool is designed with the close co-operation of Land Rover Ltd., and no tool is
put into production which has not been tested and approved by us. New tools are only
introduced where an operation cannot be satisfactorily carried out using existing tools or
standard equipment. The user is therefore assured that the tool is necessary and that it will
perform accurately, efficiently and safely.
Special tools bulletins will be issued periodically giving details of new tools as they are
introduced.
All orders and enquiries from the United Kingdom should be sent direct to V. L. Churchill.
Overseas orders should be placed with the local V. L. Churchill distributor, where one exists.
Countfies where there is no distributor may order direct from V. L. Churchill Limited. P.O.

VEHICLE WEIGHTS AND PAYLOAD


Payload figures quoted in the accompanying table are nominal values for a base specification vehicle and will in
general represent the maximum, as any options or extras fitted to the vehicle will increase its unladen weight and
hence decrease its allowable payload.
When loading a vehicle to its maximum (Gross Vehicle Weight), consideration must be taken of the unladen vehicle
weight and the distribution of the payload to ensure that axle loadings do not exceed the permitted maximum values.
It is the customer’s responsibility to limit the vehicle’s payload in an appropriate manner such that neither maximum
axle loads nor Gross Vehicle Weight are exceeded.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES

Revised Maintenance Schedules are introduced with the commencement of the Land Rover Ninety V8 model range.
The new schedules also apply to four-cylinder, petrol and diesel models, and feature a reduced 10.000 km
(6,000 miles) service. The new schedules supersede previous issues.

Efficient maintenance is one of the biggest factors in ensuring continuing reliability and efficiency. For this reason
the following detailed schedules are included so that at the appropriate intervals owners and operators may know
what is required. The Maintenance Schedules are based upon intervals of 10.000 km (6,000 miles) or 6 months
unless otherwise stated.

Note: The 10.000 km service must be repeated every 10.000 km (6,000 miles) or six months, whichever is first.

The 20.000 km service must be repeated every 20.000 km (12.000 miles) or 12 months, whichever is first, with
additional maintenance at the intervals specified in the schedule.

WARNING: Two-wheel roller tests must be restricted to 5 k d h (3 m.p.h.) because the Land Rover One Ten and
Ninety is is constant four-wheel drive.
At 100.000 km (60?000 mile) intervals it is imperative that the camshaft drive belt be renewed, failure to do so
could result in serious engine damage.
RECOMMENDATIONS
At 30.000 km (18,000 mile) intervals or every 18 months, whichevcr is the sooner, the hydraulic brake fluid should
be completely renewed.
At 40.000 km (24,000 mile) intervals remove the Pulsair injection manifold and connecting pipes, ensure that the
internal bores and the cylinder head drillings are clean and free from obstructions, clean as necessary and refit.
(Emission control V8 petrol engines)
At 60.000 km (36,000 mile) intervals or every 3 years, whichever is the sooncr, all hydraulic brake fluid, seals and
flexible hoses should be renewed. all working surfaces of the master cylinder, wheel cylinders and caliper cy!inders
should be examined and renewed where necessary.
At 60.000 km (36,000 mile) intervals remove all suspension dampers, test for correct operation, refit or renew as
necessary.

1. Start the engine, disconnect the vacuum pipe from


the vacuum unit and with the engine idling check
the dwell angle - see data. If adjustment is
required stop the engine, remove the distributor
cap, rotor arm and dust cover, slacken the fixed
contact retaining screw and using the eccentric-post
end of the special tool, as illustrated, make an
appropriate adjustment. Tighten the retaining

NOTE: If the vacuum unit has been removed or the
distributor dismantled, the vacuum advance must be
checked and if necessary adjusted.

4. Disconnect the vacuum pipe and connect a vacuum


pump to the unit.
5. Start and run the engine at idle speed and using a
timing light, slowly increase the vacuum and note
the point at which vacuum advance starts and
compare the figure with that given in data.
6. Adjustment of the serrated cam, with the special
tool, one tooth at a time, will alter the point at
which vacuum advance starts.
