Thanks, ill check this in the morning, would a blocked leak off pipe cause these symptoms though?

Im hoping for a bit of help please? My truck has been gradually losing power and has now got to the point where it struggles to climb over a house brick with 35"simex's. For a while its been struggling to do anymore than 50mph on the road and slows on hills. The engine was rebuilt by turner's approx 20000miles ago so should be strong, there's no smoke and its boosting well so its gotta be fuel. Ive removed the pickup strainer in the tank and fitted a new fuel filter, the lift pump is nearly new and it filled the filter up in no time so no probs there. It starts and runs well so i dont think the timing is out. Im thinking its got to be the FIP or injectors? anyone got any different ideas or know how to check these? thanks in advance

i recently got one of these off ebay around £200, (different seller). It's the best tool i ever bought!!! i spent 3 days cutting and welding 1/4" plate (30amps 40psi, so not flat out!) and it never missed a beat, its awesome!! No more ****ing Cutting discs!!!

Does this include the boxes? surely you could get an mot failed 300tdi auto disco for sub £500? then you've got everything needed plus loads of spares.

you see my problem. thats stupid money for something so simple.

on second thoughts has anyone got one? LR want £55 for one so a secondhand one would be great, otherwise i'll have to make one.

lol, will do cheers mate

no, its the defender TB going back in, the disco one was like pic 2, afaik its the original 1984 box.

cheers guys, its item 18 in the first pic. will get that ordered tomorrow. The wealth of infomation on this forum is ammazing!!!

nearly, last diagram item 10 is the bit in my hand in the pic. i need the bit that attaches that to the selector, mabey it comes with the box??

There seems to be a bit missing from this big meccano set i like to call my 90. I'm in the process for putting my defender tx box back in as i was using a disco one. i seem to have misplaced the bit between the selector and the bit in my hand (see pic) and i cant even remember what it looks like, does anyone have a pic of one or know where i might be able to get one? or does anyone have one sitting on a shelf gathering dust? i tried using the one off the disco box but it has a different selector, so i thought i'll swap selectors over only to find they have different types of fork, so i thought i'd swap forks over only to find the grub screw location hole is in the wrong place! why do they change these things!! Any help much appreciated

how quick do you need it mate, i may have a spare in the garage, im at work till 10 tonight, ill look tomorrow and if i have one ill stick it in the post for ya.

these are the guy's lrsengineering they're just up the road from me. was a black top half dash with aluminium face?
