Hello all. I have defender 300tdi hi-cap.
Problems started about two months ago when giving her a standard service. Since then it takes a lot longer to start than normal, a good 5 seconds of turning over before she fires, previous was nearly instant.
Anyway, once she was strarted ran fine. About week ago, i dont know if the problem is linked, but now she runs really crap, driving along seems fine (possibly a little less power) but when i come to a junction to idle, she runs really poor, put foot on throtle and takes about 10 seconds to build up revs, sometime it stalls, and the stalling is getting more common. Cant really drive it now.
Didnt seem to be any pressure in the fuel primer thing, so bought a new one (lift pump is it?) and thats made no diffrence.
pretty stuck on what to do now, no one seems to know.
Any advice or help would be so helpfull
Thankyou so much
Dan
