Thanks for that - will have a bit of a poke round under there in the next few days.

I am having a bit of a problem with front indicator wiring on a 110. Taken the light cover off the front to access the wires in the front wing, and I have got no current coming to the connector block. The loom disappears back towards the cab, do I need to take off the plastic wheelarch / splash...

The clutch pedal feels very 'light' so I suspect it might be a hydraulic problem, my assumption was that the 110's clutch would feel fairly heavy and agricultural (never actually having driven one)...............and its facing towards the workshop door about 4 feet away.............but the...

Update to this - Great Uncle Bulgaria has finally fired up. After having several attempts to get it going after plumbing in the pipes the right way round I decided to have another go this morning. After pumping fuel through the system using a Citroen / Peugeot 'rugby ball' type pump in the line...

Thanks for the photo - just what I needed. There was an error in the 'plumbing', I have put that right so at least I know its all going round in the right direction. Now to bleed the system, and see if there is any diesel coming out of the back of the pump - a job for tomorrow.

The problem is with the set up of the plastic flexible pipes from the tank to the diesel pump via the lift pump and the filter - the metal ones from diesel pump to injectors will only go on one way. The only manual I haven't got is the Haynes one. I am in Manche, Normandy just south of St Lo.

Sorry I have no real idea, but assuming its the same basic engine / pump setup it should be..............I must admit I have not spent much time poking about under LR bonnets, apart from this one that is.

Thanks very much for the replies, I have put something in the intro section..... Marmaduke, pictures or even just a diagram or written explanation of which pipe goes where would be very helpful, if I can get the plumbing right I can work on from there.

About 6 months ago I bought a 2.5TD 110 from a local expat forum, the car was cheap as the previous owner had decided that it would be a good idea to drive it back from Bulgaria (where his wife came from) with paraffin in the tank rather than diesel - the things people do to save money. Needless...

I hope this is not a stupid question, but I am new to Land Rovers. A while ago I bought a 110 2.5TD which a fellow Normandy based Brit had decided to drive back from Bulgaria with paraffin in the tank - to save a few quid???? When I bought the car most of the top end of the engine was in the...
