A girl I shared a house with in Devon, who ended up with first in mechanical engineering explained to me how humid conditions lead to a better burn. I had a car with an SU carb at the time which always ran better in such conditions as you...

It's probably the green fuel pipe which rubs against the wiring loom for the pump. Known TD5 issue so that's where I'd look first. The replacement line is available on its own (YNI500030K), it's easy to replace and doesn't need the tank dropping...

If it’s directly from where top of fuel pump is, check the hoses going to fuel pump and make sure connection is good into the pump and if they’re ok then check each line for rub through. when do you see this leak, engine running or constant leak...

Loads of all of the above here but all parked up as projects in driveways. I got offered a D3 last week for 250 sovs needs a sill welded & the starter live rewired. Got new nobby tyres on it so he just wants the sale price of the tyres.

that’s exactly my thoughts unless it’s been welded but it’s just chasing the worm really. I don’t see any d2’s around here at all now, 2023 I saw two but I checked the reg plates last year as remembered them and they’ve been scrapped.. ironically...

Surely all the d2 on original chassis must all be nearly fecked by now? Still see the odd one about, but rarely, d1 none existent and d3 getting thin on the ground around here.

My D1 has had a td5 transplant, been remapped & its got bags of grunt.

Everyman NEEDs a V8 in his life :D. Thats all I can say really:). J

3 kids in 2 weeks? Blimey, she must be knackered and a medical marvel. 😁

I don’t know if I fancy a V8 too be honest and pointless trying to swap it to td5.

Bear in mind that they don't salt the roads in Japan so that rust may be a lot more superficial than it would appear.

possibly this too? https://at-manuals.com/manuals/zf-4hp22-4hp24/

bet yours is nice though so probably worth it!

10k for galv chassis fitted… oh my god. if i was paying someone to fit a galv, i would anticipate never selling it in all honesty. I’ll just be waiting a while until i find one i’ll be happy with that’s ok price and needs some work but isn’t...

Personally I think that in reality they are all overpriced. Expensive to own, run, fuel, tax, insurance and park now with emissions rated parking. Galv chassis would be getting on for £10k fitted so the sellers would want good money for it...

Sellers market, if you want a maintainable LR which is easy to keep on the road, you have to pay for it. As to Defender prices, a D2 is a much nicer place to be.

looks a good un, specially as it came from Japan. Might have to dig a bit deeper re the chassis, could fit lpg at the same time. Is your bid in there @kevstar ? 🤣 🤣 🤣

Just looked at what a galv chassis costs now and it’s around 3k, was 2k last time I looked so probably 6k for a galv chassis one is realistic now not 5k. Also, I think I was right on one last night after reading it again LMAO! I reckon I’m going...

Thats nice good luck mate lol. Now I see why you want a sheetbox to weld as you want a good excuse to get oot the hoose. 🤣🤣

No, missus having 3rd kid in 2 weeks and I’m losing my mind hahahaha! I’ve not actually seen that one but I bet it will probably hit 7/8k

Is everything alright at home ?? 🤣 🤣 Bid on this if you've got the funds...

I gotta ask, am I delusional or are a lot of the current sellers of D2’s? Cause I’m seeing D2’s for like 3-4k that does not mention anything to do with welding the go-to places on a disco, it does mention about how all the filters have been...

I've replaced the injector harness — it was full of oil at the plug at the cylinder head. I cleaned the ECU as well, and so far, after 150 km, there have been no problems with the throttle. Also I've celand most grounding points I can reach. And...

IMO that spike in the readings is the moment when the symptom occurs and it can be caused by a weak contact somewhere(ECU plugs or other connector, oil acts as isolator in the red plug) otherwise nothing wrong with the TPS or other sensor...

A couple of the guys on D2BC have fitted that one - apparently just needs the connector on the cable changing for the one from the old fan.

Did you have any pedal errors as described in your first post happen? Have you done your injector harness? If not then change it, monitor the red plug for oil and clean periodically.

Unfortunately that motor seems obsolete all over the place, i bought one as well about 2 years ago then sent the bad one to a rewinding service and they made it like new for half the price so i keep that for spare.

Yea saw that, every time I looked last year it was out of stock and has been ever since.. unless I’m just unlucky. Assumed it was an out of stock permanently lol. Also don’t forget it might cost a lot more due to the import taxes now.

Mine did the same but wasn’t salvageable, I did look on ebay though and there is a lot on there that should work as a replacement but they’re expensive, so I’d have a look and see if there are any used on there a bit cheaper. try searching...
