My dad drives it at 50mph and seams to think that its 'normal' for it to go loud at 45-50mph and if you go above 50 then the turbo kicks in and he thinks that normal. Ive spoken on the phone to a bloke who installed new parts for the old engine (he a land rover specialist) and when i said it...

Yes its not stuck in bloody diff lock!! I dont understand im sure the old engine had the same problem but not 100% sure cuz it was knackered! But wouldnt he had to setup the fuel pump on the new engine when that was fitted?

How do i open out the fuel pump?

Hey, I phoned the bloke who built the engine and he said it sounds like a engine not getting enough fuel. I checked it and im sure its not stuck in diff lock or anything like that. Im not sure if he changed the transfer box but not sure if he would of had to or not. So it sounds like its the...

No not yet, still researching... Not sure wat tire size lol. there not exactly good tires tbf

Im not sure, surpose guessd it was fitted right.... I cant remember who fitted it, might of been bloke who did engine or we know a bloke that specailises is land rovers. But i cant remember lol

I wasnt goin to turn the fuel pump up, i was askin could that be a reason why. I dont really care what he says anymore. Im sure it had a new fuel filter fitted.

Ok just tell me what to do lol?

Is there anyway of finding out what box is in?

Hey Its if the transfer box wouldnt the bloke who built the new engine changed or configured it? I dont know what the old engine was, it was a oringinal engine from a 90s land rover 110.

But that could be the reason why....

Hey, Thanks for the reply. I really dont know tbh. How do you find out? I asked my cousin and he said about something inside the fuel pump needs turning three quaters. So could that be the problem...

Hey, What you mean, by as long as it goes quickly.... When i start it black smoke comes out of it. My dad seems to think its the diesel filter pushing to much through or something but When we first got it back, it didnt.

When black smoke comes out when you start it? Thats a bad thing right? Or is it because the engine is still new and only done just under 100 miles?

Lol 5 grand! Thats expensive!! I think he would proberly know when he came to driving it, that it suddently goes past 50!?

Nah im pretty sure he hasnt added anything to it.

Yeah he can be tough! And very very stubbon. I think he thinks that 50MPH is fast enough for me or something. But exactly going to push it or bomb it down a dual carriage way or anything! Tbh i dont really think he knows why its like that. I dought the bloke that built/fitted the engine would...

Yes i know he is, but i cant do anything he doesent want to change it because he thinks thats fast enough. He prob thinks im going to push it and speed in it when im not going to! He wont even phone anyone and ask if thats the right the top speed for it? I mean i have to do 45 on national speed...

Ok il have a go when i can

What else could it be? And what damage could it do if its left? sorry to be a pain but hes doin my head in! It struggles on dual carriage way todo 50 and above. You can put your foot down but u can hear it strugglin and pushing.
