luke1984 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I ended up going up to the plain yesterday. Gave the td5 a sight dunking and did around 60 miles no probs.VERY cold last night...-7! Started ok this morning left it ticking over,when i came out it had stopped. No whirring noises from the pump? when i tried to re start it there is a yellow sign on the dash, bottom rhs that looks ike a little bowl with a drip off the bottom? Fuse is OK and the relays pulling in? Can some one talk me throught the td5 fuel system so i cn change some filters etc next time you go up the plain you better site by the side watch ha ha then pull me out when i get stuck.

T1G UP Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 accessing the fuel pump from the top as recommended. The yellow relay under the drivers seats clicking like mad all the time with the ignition on? R6LD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smo Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Check the earths, the d-lander had clicky relays when the earth was faulty, could be a dodgy relay tho. Have you taken the multi plug off the pump yet and checked for power when the ignition is on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T1G UP Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 B%ST*RD RELAY! dodgy connection causing it to click constantly.....3 in 1 spray and a hearty tap and up she went! Gonna buy a new one. So not all bad news on the td5 front, and i fitted my H/D tank guard! Looking forward to my roast dinner now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T1G UP Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 Ok had it running all week then bang! no pump again... Relays good but clicking, side lights stopped working?,speedo going up and down....tell what it is yet! OIL in the injection loom...tiny bit but it's there cleaned the plug and off she goes but a new one iminent. Any idea how much and how much of a PITA it is to fit?

GBMUD Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 ISTR about £40 and 20 minutes fit, very straight forward. Destroy the seal on the connector between the injector loom and the main engine loom to avoid the same problem recurring - search here for more details or it is pretty self explanatory once you have it apart.

smo Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Should be a piece of cake for you to do, as chris says its fairly cheap and easy to fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T1G UP Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 td5 loom Is this what i need? And what else when i'm replacing it? Any gaskets need doing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smo Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 That looks like the kinda thing, youll need the gasket for the rocker cover iirc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBMUD Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I reused the original rocker cover gasket successfully. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
