  1. I've put a disco 300tdi into my Defender 90 and it's having trouble starting, it's as if it takes ages for the fuel to get to the injectors before it'll start. Once started it ticks over like a dream, but even after running for 20 mins you turn it off and it won't start straight away. It's got a brand new 1000cca battery The fuel solenoid clicks when I test with the wire to the tab I've put a none return valve between the fuel filter and injection unit If I slacken off an injector and turn it over with the key no fuel comes out but as soon as it does the engine starts so it feels like fuel supply to me What can I test next? thanks.
  2. Thanks! A bit of wiggling and some downward pressure and it went right in.
  3. I've put this here because I believe I have Disco axles on my Defender 90? I took the rear half shaft out to tighten up the hub because it failed the MOT on "excessive play" I tightened up the two big bolts but now the shaft won't go any further than this; Is there a trick to it? thanks.
  4. I'm putting a 300tdi into an 1989 Defender 90 I've replaced the clutch slave cylinder and am having trouble bleeding the system, all the piping is clear. If I pump the clutch I was expecting fluid to go from the reservoir and come out of the hole beneath where I've removed the pipe but it doesn't. Does this mean that I need to replace the master cylinder too?
  5. I can't find them though on lrcat.com. Anyone familiar with that site that can help please?
  6. I've a 1993 90 but the hubs don't look like the ones in the manuals, One of the bolts has been damaged and needs replacing before I put it back. Any ideas what hub this is? What partnumber do I need? Thanks!
  7. Ignore the square cross connectors - they go to the washer fluid tank I've also found a Green/Brown Brown set of two round connectors (see thumbnail pic)
  8. Hi, I've bought a project 90 4C with the engine already removed, it came with a disco 300tdi to put in it (with the back plate already modified to fit the LT77) It was missing the engine harness so I've bought one off ebay, I also bought a glow plug relay (with wires attached) from ebay too. That's what's puzzling me. I've found this helpful diagram. My 3 is red/brown not white/red and my 4 is black instead of white. In the 90 I have 4 leads near where the relay should be mounted, I've identified the thick 12v from the battery but the others are puzzling me as the colours don't match the relay ones, I've got. A set of three with round connectors Brown Black Green A set of two with square connectors Yellow/Black Black A set with square with a cross connectors Green/ Black Black Any ideas? Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks.
