I have considered it and is still on the list. It's just a quick fix. Just going to stick a 1/4 BSF through it for the time being I think

Does anyone know the TPI on the screws that hold the cap on? Mine have been stripped and contemplating running an imperial tap down. Or re tapping to 5/16 Cheers

Changed the injector seals discovered that the cam shaft seal is goosed and bodged the expansion tank return pipe with fuel line to make do for testing it cracked up first time

I've changed the seals but the pump noise sounds no different? It is slightly quieter but not much it does seem to run a bit better though Is that normal just being a mild hum?

Yeah the pump is quite vocal and it changes pitch or it'll stay loud when the engine is running. I haven't listened for air being purged in the engine bay but she's parked up til the bits arrive so I'll have a listen tomorrow evening and let you know.

I'll dig out my multimeter this weekend and have a right good probe about it can't be anything too trivial I will have a fondle and report my findings

Im beginning to think there may be a broken wire or exposed wire maybe could be completely off the mark. Since I've checked the other side of the connector it's all gone to pot. Cut out on the way home from work as well as struggled to start.

Cool I have more brake cleaner than I know what to do with anyway. I'm quite surprised that oil can get in the loom. Had a gander it was 2001+ so should be safe. Edit: just checked the ecu connector, it's dryer than a dry thing

I guess a good dose of wd and clean up would help the cause a bit?

No diesel smell in the oil it just smells like oil. Haven't checked the red plug I'll do that at work tomorrow. Ive ordered the loom and gasket there was an oem one for £30 with the gasket on lrtradeparts?

I checked the stick of dip the other day and it did seem a bit high. I'm guessing you check after a run? I thought it was just excess that had splashed up the tube. I've ordered some new seals and a filter as they're the cheapest replacement parts. I'll go and have a look and a sniff now it's...

Hi guys, so after neigh on 12 months of being stood I've rescued a family friends disco, after getting a clean bill of health, courtesy of the certified government establishment. I took the disco for her first maiden voyage, where 2 miles in it decided to pack up and refuse to start for...

I signed up here a while ago but never bought one. Now I have a discovery td5 and discovering the joys immediately as it keeps cutting out haha.

Got a few that I'm getting rid of if anyone wants any?

Could have the wrong spring rates for the dampers possibly?

Cheers dude
