    300tdi running rough (fuel starvation?)

    Yeah there’s pressure on both now. Originally I was only getting blow when releasing the lever on the side of the lift pump but I am now getting suction too

    300tdi running rough (fuel starvation?)

    Great idea, I’ll have to see if I can pick one up this weekend. Yes it had a new filter when I initially started the project around 18 months ago. Probably only been physically running for around an hour total time since then

    300tdi running rough (fuel starvation?)

    I’ve bypassed the sedimenter and blown back through the lines and can hear bubbling in the tank

    300tdi running rough (fuel starvation?)

    Evening all, I’ve just started back on my project, a 300tdi Disco, after being busy at work for the last few months. We struggled to get her to fire properly, I took the lift pump off and noticed I could only feel it blow and not suck. So I took it to my local 4x4 garage where the mechanic...

    Disco 1 EGR Electrics

    Hi guys, Just a quick one. I've blanked off my EGR on the engine side as opposed to the hose side, so I've replaced the top hose with a silicone one. My question is, what do I do now with the little electrical plug and vacuum hose? Do I just leave them disconnected? Can I disconnect them from...

    Disco 1 300TDI Wiring

    That's perfect, exactly what I needed! And much more user friendly than the Haynes ones too. Those C2.. connectors were the ones I'm on about, hopefully I can crack on now :D

    Disco 1 300TDI Wiring

    Evening all, I've fitted my engine back onto my rolling chassis and starting to drop the body on, but in the process of dismantling, I disconnected a few plugs. When I dismantled it, I left the drivers side loom attached to the engine and fed it through the bulkhead, however the passenger side...

    Disco 1 Terrafirma vs Bilstein

    Thanks for your help guys, I've ordered a set of +2" Terrafirma shocks and springs. Just wondering if it might be too much now with 2" body lift too :oops:

    Cranked Radius Arms

    Okay thanks, out of interest would you recommend them on my vehicle off of what I described in the OP?

    Disco 1 Terrafirma vs Bilstein

    Are Terrafirma good for the price? I don’t want to spend money if I don’t have to but if I’m better off buying a set of Bilstein for an extra £150 then I’d rather do that now than have to replace them down the line

    Cranked Radius Arms

    Hello all, Just a quick one. Wondering if I’ll need cranked arms on my rebuild. I’ll have a 2” body lift and a 2” suspension lift too. I understand around 4” lifted you’d need cranked arms for the prop to cope with the increased angle but considering I’m only lifting the chassis from the axles...

    Disco 1 Terrafirma vs Bilstein

    What did you replace them with? I’ve heard both incredible and terrible things about Terrafirma. How were they when they were working? Have you had any experience with Bilsteins?

    Disco 1 Terrafirma vs Bilstein

    How do Bilstein cope off-road? I understand they’re top of the range but I don’t hear much about them in the 4x4 word compared to Terrafirma

    Disco 1 Terrafirma vs Bilstein

    Hi all, I’m currently in the stages of rebuilding my disco, got the axles off and realised I need some new shocks. I was going to replace them at some point over the next year or so anyway so it’s no bother. My question is, should I go for Terrafirma or Bilstein shocks. I’d be getting them...

    Will do mate. And likewise :D seen a few with it on at shows and it always catches my eye. Hoping to spray it over the next couple of weeks (need to get the chassis rolling first) so I'll let you know how I get on.

    I'll shoot you a message now. I'm on the worcs/gloucs border, just on the outskirts of the Cotswolds

    U-Pol Raptor

    That's brilliant, cheers mate! I've been reading through the leaflet that came with my pack and according to the instructions on there, for the best results you need to use solvent based toners from basecoat mixing systems... But I have no idea what that means. Can you decipher it? It also...

    U-Pol Raptor

    That would be great, thanks mate! I’d like to know what type of paint you used, how you applied it and how it turned out. Also, if it scuffs whilst off roading, what is the best way of touching it up so that it blends in?

    Good idea, thanks mate!
