Kermit!!

Well I've finally lost patience with her! For sale is a 1996 2497cc diesel p38. Sometimes she starts, sometimes she doesn't, sometimes she stalls and sometimes she runs beautifully. 141000 miles, full service history, silver with grey leather, some painting required to both back corners ( I've...

Thank you for all your input, diagnostics being done in the next day or two.

Hi Wammers, thanks for that. Could it possibly be the crank sensor?

Hello everyone. I have removed the Range from said garage and it is now being cared for by a very reliable mechanic. I started the vehicle with no problem this morning,drove it 3 miles to the new garage,stopped in the car park,engaged reverse and the engine died. I tried to start it again but...

Help Again!! I've had my diesel Range in a Land Rover garage for 3 weeks because of it not starting when it's hot. The AA mechanic that originally looked at it when i had broken down narrowed it down to the pump in the tank because of a lack of fuel getting to the fip from the filter...

The garage told me they flushed the tank and blew an airline down the pipe when i phoned about 20 minutes ago. They have just ordered a new pump for me today. Am i being fleeced or could it be the pump? Is there also any kind of additive i can put in the tank to avoid the sludge problem in the...

I've done that little test and to be honest i could **** quicker than the speed the fuel is coming out, and i've got nowhere near 180ml of fuel in the jug. Is the fuel pipe from the tank to filter as one or is there a join of some sort? I've been told the pipe has been replaced but i haven't...

Sorry but i don't know how to start a new thread.

I've just had a brand new Britpart fuel pump fitted in the tank of my P38 Diesel plus a new fuel pipe to the filter housing and my mechanic now says i have very low fuel pressure from the tank. Could it really be the Britpart pump? If not, what could it be? It started fine when cold but cut out...

Thank you all for your help. She has gone to a landrover specialist now, just got to wait a day or two for the verdict.

Thanks! I just wanted some help/advice that's all.

Thanks! I'm new to Range Rovers,looking for some help and that's the kind of answer i get.
