Hi guys new here,
Iv got a 1999 disco 1 300tdi.
18 months ago I broke down as over heated and expansion tank had split in half, replaced that to find water pouring out of exhaust so yep head gasket gone. Replaced that and had head skimmed and pressure tested. Put it all back together but very little compression.
Ripped it all apart again changed two pistons with minor wear, changed all the rings, bottom end bearings etc. Now got it all back together and she still won’t start.
She’s turning over but no ignition. In the process of checking compression again and only done cylinders 2&3. 2 is at 250 psi and 3 is only at 100.
Any help greatly appreciated as this is started to break me now. I need on the road ASAP.
