Sabre Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I forgot about this thread😪 A year after this was discussed here, I lost the oil pump on my Disco 300 Tdi. Worn away the location tabs on the rotor, and chowed the crankshaft. I have rebuilt the engine but has not started it yet (Yip happened two years ago, and many stoppages has delayed my rebuilt) I still think the 300 Tdi oil pump is not a clever design Incidently, I haven't seen posts from Boydie for quite some time now, anyone knows what happened to him ?

I think I remember reading he'd sold his truck and was leaving behind land rover products due to ongoing health issues, I'm sure it was posted on here somewhere. Bit of a loss to the forum. His truck was quite interesting, he'd retrofitted hydraulic lifters, and his roof was Aluminium and painted white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
