colinl my disco 1 is a 1996 ES Auto, one of the very early ones, yes its got the edc system, but i thought there was no where i could get remapped? where is the brain box located on a disco 1? and who remaps these old discos?

hello as it says, can this be done on a 1996 300tdi auto? i have just done this on 200tdi with great effect:D:D

Andyb66 thanks for the up date, was off roading today and heard this info/rumour:):) i am in two MSA affiliated clubs so before i spend a lot of money on tyres i will do a bit more research :):)

just about to order Simex tyres for my landrover but was informed that MSA rules where changing to ban these type of tyres:eek::eek: i don't know if this is true:confused: does anyone who off roads with club know:confused: any help please

Charles Y when i set the TDC i checked for the mark on the flywheel, it matched the woodruff key HOWEVER i removed the rocker to check if i had any bent push rods, but i NEVER reset the tappet clearance:doh::doh: would this cause the white smoke:confused::confused: will look at these tappets...

yes its real nice to get her past the MOT the colour of the smoke is still white, then when giving her loads of wellie turns to black, lift your foot off and it goes back to white no water lost, no oil lost, no gunk around the oil filler cap, i still think its a timing issue was getting the...

well still a bit smokie after adjusting the pump timing. however after the rebuild and new chassis she past the MOT TODAY:D:D:D:D:D big red now on the road legally;););)

removed the timing belt and started all over, set the timing, it looked as if the injector timing was out, rebuilt and tested, YES YES YES engine running on the first turn of the key:):):):):):):) still have a small amount of white smoke:eek::eek: will now fine tune the injection timing...

Charles Y will try it again in the morning just as you describe:):):) just one question, if the cam pulley was turned would just setting back at the mark be ok:confused::confused::confused: i am not saying it was just clutching at straws

ok mechanic couldn't make it yesterday so i set about the job of refitting the timing belt checked all the markings before removing timing belt placed locking pin (made my own pin to fit the hole on the injection pump) wood drift at 12 oclock TDC, checked number 1 piston to make sure it...

right this afternoon i tried to advance the injection pump as per various information set out in the posts, couldn't get to move far enough, HOWEVER the slight movement made a bit of a difference BUT not good enough :mad::mad: as Charles Y said, start again which i have:eek::eek::eek...

tig9619 i used a 10mm and 8mm drill bits to lock the pulleys, i also had tipex on all the places i could mark, i really don't believe that i missed a tooth, however if the timing is out then i must have done something wrong:(:(:( i hope i can advance the timing by moving the pump slightly:):)

so can i advance the pump on my 300tdi:confused::confused::confused: which might stop the white smoke:):):)

pos sorry i updated my signature but didn't update my profile:doh::doh:

pos 300tdi engine

pos just had a look at the pump, understand about 98% on what you wrote, on mine theres a securing bracket at the rear of the pump thats secured to the engine, this bracket has the throttle cable on the end of it, question is there doesn't appear to be slots in this bracket so how does the...

pos thanks for this, i will try the 1st method in the morning, fingers crossed:):):)

pos when you say knock it forward a tooth, do u mean take the cover off and move the timing belt:confused::confused::doh::doh:

as my engine was out of the landy i had the timing belt fitted, new tensioner etc, the locating pins where used so i don't think the timing moved now i have reinstalled and started the landy today, loads of white smoke 1) checked water level doesn't appear to be loosing any 2) no black...

sypher thanks for the reply, one thing is for sure u cant drive the landy without one of these ball joints its just a pain in the arse having to press them out and in
