Morning

Whilst driving my disco it started to loose power and get quite jerky. I have checked the wastegate, Ecuador’s for oil and the 3 small black pipes which all seem to be fine.

In neutral it won’t rev past 3000 rpm, cold this be the fuel pump?

Thanks in advance

Fuel/air filters old? Any smoke?

The air filter is clean, I’m going to order a new fuel filter. The fuel pump isn’t making any noise even when I press the accelerater 5 times to prime. Should it always make the whining noise?

Sounds like it, I had to drive over 100 miles with a bust pump.
