    Heavy black smoke and very poor fuel economy

    Hi guys, wasn't going to post until Monday to be sure but I am sure so will post. I disconnected the Maf meter and have done a load of running about.

    Many thanks for your reply sierrafery, I will unplug the MAF sensor and run it on my way home and see if it's any better. If not i will check the hoses for splits or delamination. I believe it's Empire tuning. Andy

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Got round to fitting the bias plate on Monday which went quite easily to be honest, only had to remove the first plate and had easy access to replace the plate which had snapped completely off.

    Replaced the gear stick centering plate and springs, i can now select 3rd and 4th with ease. Also replaced the rubber bung that caps off the pipe that's under the turbo with a nice new silicone one so no mere weeping coolant. Andy

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    So not a big thing but fitted 5 new dust covers to my tyre valves! Have ordered a new silicone oil cooler plug as the current one looks like the original one and is weeping slightly but if it fails it can lead to a catastrophic coolant loss and engine over heat and head gasket failure bit...
