ah ok, its under the throttle linkage spring I think,

Fitted a new injection pump tonight, runs perfectly except for a diesel leak, o_O is there an additive for a fuel leak?

I did a quick eBay search for a tow hitch motorcycle carrier. Come up with a few. Most were american though.

I don't know exactly what he done but im not full of confidence in his work. problem is I don't know how to do it myself. I think the timing is set but feeling lost now.

Had a landy mechanic look over the 90 today. Even he was. Bit stumped. So we decided to start stripping the timing case ect for removing the pump. When we took the belt.tensioner off the fuel pump jumped back a fair bit. Could it just be the pump was under tension from the belt and was jammed open?

Yeah. No difference at all. When I bought the engine I was told it had a new belt. Could it be the timing out slightly? Im getting worried im going have to fit a new injection pump as I don't know what else to look at. How easy it to swap a pump over? Never done it before.

Can anyone tell me what might happen if I play around with the power screw? I don't have the skill to swap injection pumps.

Hmmm. Was worried about it might come to that. What's involved in swapping one and does anyone know if a disco one will fit my defender engine. Both 200tdi's

Does anyone have a pic or diagram of the fueling screw? I can't find any other fault at present as I can only let it run for a few seconds.

Hmmmm. Hope not. Might have to look at it myself tomorrow.

I forgot to add I already slakened the stop bolt and throttle cable. Still runs very fast so not really wanting to let it run at such,a high rpm.

Thanks for moving this for me. I was using my phone and couldnt do it earlier. I know the engine lay out of a landy for a couple of years. Can I run it without the expansion cap and servo hoses connected? Hope its not a head gasket as I haven't even driven it since I bought it. Thanks guys.

thanks.

hi guys,, im having a problem with a conversion im nearly finshed doing..when i start the 90 its runs very fast..i know i had some intercooler hoses ect mixed up but i beleive they are sorted now.. i slackened off the throttle cable.. slackened the bolt that allows the throttle linkage to goes back to rest further back..when i kill the engine i hear a slight hissing noise so guess i might have an air leak somewhere but cant find it as its stopped by the time i get under the bonnet.. any suggestions, its a defender 90 2,5 na with a defender 2tdi installed..thanks guys..,i was trying to post this in the tech bit but it said i couldnt.. cheers.

thanks for that mate. appriciate it.

Hi everyone. I'm thinking of swapping the 3.9 v8 for either a 200 or 300 tdi. Anyone know how easy or hard this might be?. Also a list of parts I will need. I know about engine, radiator/intercooler. Filter housing. What else might I need? Thanks guys.

hmmm, car seems great at everything but the indicators. thanks for the advise though.

hi guys, i have now lost all indicators and hazzards. help. where is the relay for the hazzards. i checked the fuse under the bonnet and its fine. switch lights up. i have changed the relay four times. nothing works. indicators still flash when i arm the alarm though.?

hi guys, thanks for the replys. i have the 300 series bumper set up. indicators in the bumper but not in the light cluster. i have the four pin relay but i have seen three pin ones. would one of them be what i need for this set up? or should i wire up anther bulb to slow down the flashing. thanks.

hi all. i bought a v8 disco and thought this was an easy fix. all the bulbs are working but the indicators flash fast on both sides. i have changed the relay twice so im stuck for ideas. any help would be great. thanks

lol. is there anything left standard on your series fridge?

so its not worth it mate.? ill just get some decent tyres then and stick at the height its at. cheers for the info mate.

thanks for that post mate, so much i dont know. hmmm, portals. lol

cheers for the reply's guys. not what i wanted to hear but thats life. ill just have to get one tonne spring hangers and parabolics. that will give me a bit of a lift. cheers for the advice.

hi guys, im looking to give my series a real lift. similar to fridgefreezers series. i have a series 2a 109. im looking to put on parabolic springs and locate the axles underneath the springs with longer u bolts. i was talking this through with a mate and he said something about axle wrap.??? is this an easy enough mod or an i best to leave well alone? thanks guys.
