hello all
I changed the knackered old engine in my defender for a half decent one from a 300 tdi discovery starts ok but even on full throttle will only just tick over.what have I missed????
 
As in same revs regardless of how much you press accelerator? That'll be a issue with cable or accelerator part of FIP
 
If the throttle cable is attached properly and you have full movement at the accelerator on the top of the pump, I would check the fuel supply for pipes connected the wrong way round or trapped or crushed pipes.
Was it a 300tdi before the swap?
 
Flow and return banjo bolts on the FIP have different sized ports. You've maybe fitted the return banjo bolt in the flow on the pump.
