Hi, Thanks for the reply.. Forgive me for my ignorance on this but from what I can see, the air ends up in the fuel filter which is before the lift pump so would the problem not lie between the fuel tank and fuel pump...? as I said I am just thinking out loud, you guys obviously know your stuff..

Hi Guys, After reading what you guys have said and what I have read online, I think the problem lies with the fuel line coming from the tank to the fuel filter, thats the only way there is air coming into the fuel filter (i think). So tomorrow I will be installing a new fuel line in, I haven't...

Hi and thanks for the reply, The first time when I opened the tap at the bottom of the filter, air came out. I took the filter and the filter housing off, checked to see if there was any obvious gunk in there but it seemed clean (mind you the filter has done less than 1500 miles). There...

my budget is between £5-7k, would i be wasting my money in this price range or the ones i find in this price range should be ok..

Hi Guys, didnt expect any replies so soon... Ok, I have never owned a diesel let alone a defender but i have my mind set and will buy a 110 CSW. i find my self attracted more to the 200tdi compared to the 300's and td5's. I would prefer to buy one with its original paint work and with no...

Hi Guys, just joint the forum. Hoping to own a defender very soon so thought I might be able to get some advise from you guys...
