Not sure about part number or price - I can't remember.... I do remember that the seal came with the plate in a little kit. Fitting was straightforward, but a little fiddly. At least one of my rubber hoses was welded tight on to the plate, so that was a sod to do. Even though mine wasn't...

+1 to that.

Just to conclude... First of all, the previously discussed page in RAVE is not accurate for a THOR engine. There are some joints that can be accessed - way up out of the way, just in front of the fuel tank, but not shown in RAVE that I could find. The problem is, the fuel pump doesn't seem...

I've just noticed that yours is a GEMS, mine is a THOR, so I'm pretty certain yours won't have the same throttle body coolant arrangement. I'm prepared to be corrected though. I also have so say - having been through what I've been through - that your symptoms do point towards porous block -...

Yes, so secret that your phone won't ring! I've tried the number you gave a few times and it immediately 'hangs up'.... I've PM'd you with my number to see if you have any success in ringing me.....:(

Cheers. I've found it in RAVE. I'll have a play during my smoking break at the weekend! :eek: If you never hear from me again you'll know it didn't go well! Seriously though, your cautions have been noted.

I'm not sure if yours is like mine, but my 2000 4.6 lost coolant slowly from the area around where two small pipes attach under the throttle body. I ended up replacing the metal plate and seal under there - along with both pipes in the end to get a decent joint. I used to park with a clean...

I'm afraid I've not been able to find anything useful in RAVE yet on this subject - which is why I'm on here!

I've got a pit, so accessing it from under the car is probably going to be easier than taking half the engine out again to get to the fuel supply line. Where does the fuel return enter the tank? And is that where I should access it from? Also, how do I tell the difference between the fuel...

I love the fact that there's an ad at the bottom of my page for "Fuel Transfer Pumps"! But even the ad doesn't tell me how / where to access the fuel line.... anyone... ? :focus:

I don't want to puncture the petrol tank as I still need to be able to move it around until I get rid. As for the LPG tank - should I just open it up with an angle grinder while smoking a cigar to empty it....???:eek::eek::eek::violent::flame2::D:D:D

I'm certain. Its running beautifully - until it overheats!

Ok. thanks Wammers. That's the John part, what about Janet? - Where do I access the fuel line?

If I can't siphon it out, I was figuring something like this would do it, but I'm going to need it a bit more 'Janet & John' - like where to access the fuel line and how to send 12v to the tank pump...???

I was assuming there's an anti-syphon device fitted...? If not, then happy days!

I believe the engine is indeed "fecked"! I had the usual fluid loss and overheating issues for ages, then I did the cylinder head gaskets a couple of years ago (having already fitted a new rad, water pump, thermostat).... the cylinder head job sorted my problems very well, and I had about a...

Hi all. My 2000 petrol V8 has died and I'll probably be scrapping it... shortly before it died I'd fuelled it up (both petrol and LPG!:mad:). Before I get rid, I want to retrieve most of the fuel - petrol at least...! What is the best way of going about getting the fuel out? While I'm on...

Hi all. My P38 died a few weeks ago and I picked up its replacement - a 2007 L322 TDV8 last weekend. On the first of (probably many!) trips to fill it with fuel I noticed that the filler flap does not appear to lock - at all. My first question is - should it? Assuming it should lock with...

Even if it breaks down, at least it'll look nice on the driveway... :D

Thanks Chris, and thanks everyone for your input. I've taken the plunge anyway, as I'm smitten with Range Rovers, and I need a new car. I've bought a very well cared for 2007 TDV8, and I'm looking forward to years of trouble free motoring! (Cough!!) Cheers.
