Sounds like it could be your crank sensor,if you’ve got a nanocom or a Hawkeye check the rpm when cranking if it’s shows zero or an erratic number it’s your cps
Anyone know if a standard engine crane can lift high enough the remove the engine from a lifted defender on 35” tyres? The engine is a td5 worried a standard 1 or 2 ton one won’t be able lift high enough, Cheers
