    Sorry for the late reply.. Starter, alternator are new and battery is in good condition. It has a powerful start but does not fire. When it does start with a spray can it dies afterwards.

    TD5 does not fire up

    Hello, Asking for a friend. He has a ‘03 TD5 Defender which does not want to fire up. Starter is turning, and does start when spraying starter fluid into the EGR. I am thinking towards the fuel pump or the injectors like the o-rings or the injector wiring loom due to oil. What are your first...

    Starter size (front bracket)

    Just a quick question as my new starter for my 2.5N/A won’t fit to the front bracket as where the old one did fit to. It should be the correct part (NAD500210). Can this do harm? And do you guys fit a ground cable from the starter itself to the chassis as well? Thanks!

    She brakes perfect now. It were the shoes which needed a tighter adjustment. All bicyclists, rabbits and other species are a lot safer now :)

    Starting issues 2.25 Petrol

    It was the starter, IOW I also tested it with a new battery out of a VW which is 100% fine. And it didn't move a thing. Yes I know but I was on a safe distance. I have a new starter which I will mount, so hope it starts very sweet! I will try to fix the old one and use it as a spare.

    Starting issues 2.25 Petrol

    Ok so Starter is out and tested, dead as a doornail, ugh.. does this also explain why there are no sparks when I tried to connect the solenoid terminals with a screw driver? Can I test the solenoid if it works correctly so I know everything is fine when I put in a new starter? (I assume this...
