    300 tdi power loss

    Sounds to me like its drawing in air somewhere. My 300tdi was doing exactly the same and also sometimes cutting out but would eventually restart. I ran a pipe from a can of derv in the passenger footwell straight to the lift pump and drove about for a few miles. Instantly it drove better...

    disco 300 tdi left front hub leak

    Mine has recently started doing similar and upon inspection I discovered the upper swivel bearing was utterly goosed. As in there are no bearings in the upper race :lol:

    Drain fuel tank

    :lol: It would have been much easier on mine (300tdi btw) if I could have took the towbar off, however being a plastic tank I managed to "manipulate" it in and out with a bar. Theres only the roll bar to drop down and 4 bolts on the tank strap and thats all that holds the tank in bar the...

    Drain fuel tank

    Piece of **** to drop the tank, I did it by myeslf on my back. Mine had previously been run on allsorts of **** and was full of nasty goo and gritty stuff. However if you pull up the boot carpet and sound deadening you will see an inspection plate which you can remove allowing you to take the...

    Disco Door springs How-to...

    My Dicovery n/s front door had a snapped outer handle when I got it, leaving it possible to open from the inside only. On saturday I fitted a new handle and it was working fine. Then a couple of hours later it wouldnt open from the inside or outside. It feels like the door is locked when you...

    3.9 Popping back through inlet

    Had a look at the weekend, fitted a mates spare dizzy and ignition amp and set the timing bang on to Autodata specification. Its now sweet as a nut and pulls nice and strong right through the revs on petrol with no issues.... still pops on gas at between 3.5 - 4k rpm. Im guessing the gas system...

    3.9 Popping back through inlet

    Going to hopefully get another look at it this weekend. Has anyone got the timing diagram for the engine so I can double check it is timed right? Also the firing order too? I believe it is timing related somehow now. Im hoping its not a knackered cam as I really cant be bothered to take the...

    3.9 Popping back through inlet

    Its about the same on gas as it is on petrol and does the popping just the same when revving on the spot. Timing was checked with a strobe yes. I do agree that it seems to be spark related still. It has a strong spark on idle but was beginning to think it could be the coil breaking down at...

    3.9 Popping back through inlet

    My Discovery has a problem of being very reluctant to rev up and is flat as a fart as the revs rise. It also pops and bangs back up the inlet and has even blown the rubber pipe from MAF to throttle body to bits :lol: Its ok to drive at low revs and light throttle but ask for anything more and...
