Ive already replaced the fuel filter on Monday. It had about a tablespoon of fuel in it...
The new lift pump has arrived so ill change it anyway...
Is the tank easy to remove? I may just drain it anyway incase there is water/dirt in there....
-
Cock! Ive welded a new floor in without inspection cover LOL. Out comes the angle grinder tomorrow then!
-
Can anyone enlighten me on how to drain the tank?
-
Lovely!
-
Do the breathers just come off the axle? i.e easy to remove to see if theyre blocked?
-
The filler neck wasnt in the water but agreed that the ajoining pipework maybe.
Ill replace the pump and check the lines and also drain the tank if its relatively easy? Is it?
I suppose i can seperate the diesel and water (if any) off and re use the fuel...

Lovely, ill take a look today and see whats what.
Off road day was here:

Sounds like mine did when the lift pump died. It will run happily on the injector pump at idle but not enough juice to do any more than that. I swapped it for a known good one to check, found it to be the problem and bought a new one for about £12
Oh right im guessing it was an ebay bargain for that price? Where do i access the lift pump from?

During an off road event today i was driving my 200TDi along, started an incline, got half way up and lost all power and it died. Started up again and away i went. Got back down and it died again. Now it started up, revved it pulled away and the revs dropped slowly and it died, or if it didnt die it dropped to about 400rpm, even with my foot on the accelerator it wouldnt rev above the 400rpm for about 10 secs then it would rev freely again a few times, then just drop again.
We towed it home and it idled perfect out side the workshop while we made space inside for it, then went to move it and it struggled again.
I had half a tank in so its not lack of fuel in the tank but it does feel like fuelling. Im going to change the filter tomorrow incase all the movement stirred so carp up off the bottom of the tank especially as half hour before i was stuck at this angle:
Anyone else experienced the same problems and resolved them?

LOL ok. You couldnt measure it for me could you and make a rough online drawing of it please?

Does anybody have a template or dimensions of defender arches?
Ill be fitting some to my disco next week, but i need to make the cuts now to clear my 33" tyres ready for an off road event on Sunday.

I have a discovery 200tdi, 1991 H reg, that i usually use for green laning. While off roading a couple of weeks ago, i ripped the gutter mount off the vehicle, while the whip aerial is still okay and i plan to re use. Members of group i was with mentioned that it was a common fault with the gutter mount aerial.and low branches etc, and that an aerial mount on the spare wheel carrier om the back door is a solution. Going on thunderpole/CB4x4 neither do or stock it. Any body have a solution to where i might source one or infact have 1 lying around there garage?
thanks

Ebay had them last week when i was looking. Ive since fitted a hatch mount on the bonnet
-
Ive bought a 2" lift ket and just want to check something.
Are the 2 taller of the 4 springs the rears and the shorter ones the front or vice versa?
Cheers
My disco died today....

Well its all up on the ramps ready for the tank to be removed (still need directions on this), lines off to be replaced, chassis panited, axles painted, wading kit fitted, and body undersealed.
Going to do the lot while theres a break in the off road day calander!
