jericho Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 This morning I arrived at work and turned the landrover off with the key.I noticed it took a moment for the engine to cut out,which its never done before. Made several journeys throughout the day and it seamed to get slightly worse.This evening there is a delay of about two seconds between turning the key and the engine dying. Its not a problem at the moment,but I suspect it will become one. What is going on?What should I look at? Thanks, Jerry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderman Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Fuel solenoid in the pump , Probbaly the plunger seal worn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Probably a sticky plunger or weak spring or at the very worst take the shut off solenoid out & see if there's any very thin slithers of swarf in the recess, if there is, you'll need to get the pump rebuilt, it's how the cam plate & roller pick up on each other & wear.
