Not me, there are some guys on a charity rally to Mongolia. They are currently in the Germany. They have a 1996 ES v8i (with LPG) Auto disco that very recently had a new tank. Here's what's up.

dodgy petrol feed has us once more in a motel. Waiting for the Landrover dealer to open somewhere about 50 miles west of Dover.

They had the tank flushed and found loads of crap in it including bits of wire.

They got on their way again, then today

Towed in last night, again AM. Dies every 50 miles, 1 hr wait to restart. Going to 3rd dealer tomorrow AM. If not fixed will have to bail.

Anybody any idea what it could be?

possibly a blocked breather in the tank causing a vacuum in the fuel system

Seems the landy dealer in Aachen thinks it's the anti theft device. Is this common? Can it be bypassed? PM me if you don't want to post....

they are up and running and on their way again! Just had a text to say they have crossed into Austria, and am waiting to see what the problem was.
Thanks for the suggestions
