Etienne, part no. checks errata, I was too quick on the draw!
Conversion to 200Tdi is straightforward. Note 300Tdi position is
different, more to the front of vehicle (hence missing competitive
edge in off-road performance: front axle heavier loaded, look at
Toyota's with heavy 4 l diesel plowing through mud & sand, front axle
too heavy relatively.
Conversion kit number genuine LR = STC8357 Simon Theodore Cornelis
Eight Three Five Seven (1994 reference part no., Ninety & One Ten vehicle,
2.5 Diesel Turbo / Power Assisted Steering/ Engine prefix no.
19J00001C --> onwards, 1986 -> onwards.
200Tdi is proven, stiffer engine (additional ladder frame underneath),
turbo better protected against water splashes (on top of engine),
starter moter cooler (no hot turbo nearby).
Success, Cees Willig
