Yes I was just wondering if that could happen, will try each pump on its own before buying another one.

Thanks. Looks like someone has removed the rear wiper and then plumbed both pumps to the front at some point. Glad I asked as I was about to replace both pumps!

Just replacing washer jet on 200tdi defender with ones fitted to the wipers, piped em up and still only a dribble of water coming through. Took washer bottle off to clean it out and wondered why I have two pumps going straight into a t-piece then one pipe up to washer nozzle. Would one pump have...

Maybe should have realised that after the first engine? I have been waiting for the doom sayers to jump in....the op was asking about the 200tdi, there is very good reason we still run the Vectra on pump diesel.

Get the filters off ebay, I think its filterbagman in Bradford, they are filter socks, I use 3, 25micron, 5 micron then 1 micron. Stuff the 25 into the 5 and then stuff them both inside the 1 micron so you only need to filter through them once. I use a wheely bin with a tap near the bottom and...

Yes I run a 200tdi with a bio tuning twin tank kit fitted. My honest advice is only do it if you are going to be doing big mileage, its just not worth it otherwise. Mine took a lot of setting up and problem solving to get it running well (touches wood). But if you don't mind the continueous...

Very funny..... Seriously though, after much thought I've managed to fix it.........I've put some safety goggles and a shower cap in her handbag.....should be in her good books next time....

If its mice nesting in the heater box then we've got it all covered in one job. There was a neat looking square of tissue paper shot out at one point as well. Surely the mice can't be that expert at cutting stuff up.

Ah good, I'll stop making up stories about mice nesting under the dash then.

I persuaded my wife that we should go out in my lifted, straight through exhausted, Kawasaki green painted 90 instead of her nice quiet, comfy, socially acceptable car today. "Its a bit warm in here" she shouted through gritted teeth. "Don't worry" I shouted back, full of optimism and pride...

Was just about to go round and have a look but there is no Wakefield Road in Otley.

Thanks for that, a bottle of mineral based 2 stroke to get on the way home then. I think I'm still pulling a lot of crap through from the tank at the moment, as I've used the main tank for the wvo, first filter died after 400 miles. I know its not the wvo because its filtered to 1 micron. Do you...

Saltlick, do you run 100% wvo in the veg tank through the winter, or do you mix diesel or petrol to help it through the pipes before it gets heated? Reason I ask is I've just got a bio tuning twin tank kit up and running and was wondering about the practicalities of running through the winter...

Range Rover classic seats in mine.

Not got any yet, was wondering what to buy.
