GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Origional Author: Ted Rose (tr@fourfold.ocunix.on.ca)
Below is a listing of various parts and part numbers that are generally required when you undertake general maintenance or a tune-up of your aluminium friend. This is just a partial guide to help you order parts from a local automotive store if you do not wish to go a longer distance for parts (See Section 9 in this FAQ) Because of the age of some of our Land Rovers, and the fact that many have had parts interchanged over their lives, it's difficult to give exact listing for everyone. Yours might be a little different. If in doubt, take the parts with you to the store or bring it with you Tune-Up Day and we will help figure it out. More complete sources for part numbers are available. The Land Rover Factory Parts Manual is the ideal source for information. Check with fellow Land Rover owners. Some of them are fanatics and may have a copy of this tome.
Four season coolant with rust inhibitors. Flush the system first. If an "O" ring gasket is required, the rear hub seal from a 1961 - 76 Austin Mini makes a good replacement.

- DISTRIBUTOR:
The Distributor used on Series II, IIA, and early III and Rovers is the same as found on the 1960's Austin Mini and numerous other British cars. It is a LUCAS 25D4. In the early-mid 1970's this was changed to the LUCAS 45D4 distributor. The 6 cylinder Land Rover used a Lucas 25D6 distributor.
Knowing this, if you can't get your distributor cap for your 1964 Land Rover using the Land Rover part number, just ask for the distributor cap off of a 1968 Austin Mini. It will fit.
