    Hi, The britpart driveshaft is not an OEM part, so it has nothing in common with the original. So the gaiter will not fit, you need to put a universal gaiter, your mechanic should know that. Regards

    Hi, Check also the front diff mount, which is known to fail. Sometimes fixing a part will put a lot of stress on a failling part. For bolts they should always be put at same place, there is a lot of force on them, and with time they are bent.

    Yes, unbolt pipe from fuel rail. Lift injector and pipe out and then you can get a spanner on the injector.

    Hi, You can try to remove the injector with the metal pipe. Replace the injector including the metal pipe. Use an injector extractor tool, injectors are a pain to remove. Regards.

    Alteredtech replied to the thread Freelander 1 Bad Idle & grey smoke - Opinions Welcome..
    Hi, The pipes should not be fully inserted in the bottle so you can see if it’s an intermittent or continuous flow. Injector 2 has too much leakback compared to others, needs to be replaced.

    It runs fine or not ? If not and espacialy with starting issue and rought idle, can be injectors related. A leak back test is your best option.

    Alteredtech replied to the thread Diesel Fuel compensation MM3.
    Hi, You should do a fuel return test. Certainly the injectors are dead, cleaning injectors won’t help. When you had the injectors removed, you put them in the same place ? More than 2 mm3 fuel compensation is too much. Regards

    Hi, You have 2 cylinders that are totally out of balance, certainly 2 dead injectors. Do a leak back test, to spot the clogged injectors.
