    Landrover 90 problem

    To be honest I am not surprised you still have a problem as I said to someone on hear the other day. The lift pump supplies more fuel than is needed as it needs to presure feed the the system. Excess fuel goes back to the tank via the return line. If this blocks it normally will blow the...

    Landrover 90 problem

    When you bypassed the lift pump, how did you supply the fuel? As this might explain why it worked for a bit.

    Landrover 90 problem

    It could also be an air leak on the low pressure side of the injection pump

    Urgent help PLEASE - overspill hose T connector blows off on start

    Sounds like the return hose is blocked to me. If the injector is blocked it will run bad but it wont blow the pipe off. The blead off pipes are just for excess diesel, to return and therefore they should never be under presure at all. If they are there is a blockage. There should and has to be...

    Build my own landy - viable?

    Yes money is certainly a big part of my build, but to be honest, time is my biggest hassel. Because mine is a ground up design and build, it takes a while to solve, design then build. My build has taken far longer than I would have ever thought. I will be glad when she is finished, or should I...

    Moving the battery for security

    Instead of trying to stop someone turning her over with the battery, why not fit a flywheel lock? Or a fuel cut of solenoid? If you want advice let me know. This type of thing is what I like to do.

    90 TD5 Chasis Change

    Hi Quilkyn, I have removed the body totaly on my 300tdi. You wont need to strip the body down, to lift it. I did find to my surprise that the body on my 300tdi was very heavy towards the back, it might not be the same on a 90, but something to keep in mind.

    Build my own landy - viable?

    To answer your questions: would it be viable to build it on my driveway, without the use of a 2 post-lift? Yes I have done mine on my drive without a lift at all. Or would i have to really look into borrowing some garage space for a couple of days? It would help as the winters are cold but...

    Build my own landy - viable?

    Well mine I would guess has cost about £10,000 so far. When she is finished, she could be worth £50,000 up. It depends on how much I can do with her, and how many world records I can get. A standard searover will set you back about £25,000. Yet you can build that for a lot less. I dont...

    2.5 Diesel starter motor issues

    Hang on before you remove the starter! Try something that will seam really stupid, first. Losen the fan belt off and try to start her again. I have been there before with my Disco. I stripped my starter down and serviced it. It made no difference, then I replaced the starter, but still she...
