    starting problem

    I had this issue turned out it was my immobiliser on the pump was causing it, smashed it off and ran a direct feed to the pump and started straight away, crack an injector pipe when cranking to see if you get any diesel through

    poor start and dodgey glow plugs

    Sorry should have made that clearer ment check and make sure diesel flows to the injector pump clearly first and that it's definitely getting to it and not after it before assuming it's the solenoid

    poor start and dodgey glow plugs

    Definitely slacken the injector lines off first and crank over a few times and see if diesel comes out it should come out at a steady rate, if not then slack off the bleed screw on the top of the filter housing and pump the lift pump and again a steady stream should come out (you may find you...

    poor start and dodgey glow plugs

I managed...

Left it for a day and started to fault find, 12v to glow plugs, glow plugs all out and tested individually, checked diesel supply to filter and...

    Off road Northern Ireland

    Hi guys does anyone have any idea where to go for an off road site in NI? There's a few places I know of but they just rent you their vehicles. I'd rather just use my own and my brother is in a shogun so land rover clubs aren't any help to him... Anyone any sites or places? Thanks Will

    First hand battery recommendation? What do you use?

    I've got a 640 tractor battery, GS Hercules I think it's called. It replaced a 644 varta that was a complete let down, if you didn't time the glow plugs just right or forgot n flicked the key you had no hope, had to get a jump. Got the 640 about 6 months ago and am extremely impressed with it...
