I have a previous thread relating to this 300tdi. which was headed my disco has died due to Mr rust in chassis. I am hoping that someone would want the running gear especially the engine and the new cylinder head and radiator , starter motor and clutch, starter and clutch not done 500 miles.
I need help because the day before I was told that the car could be a problem to drive, I did my normal thing and topped up the tank, so I have 16 gallons locked away in the tank.
Could someone advise me of a convenient way to remove the fuel. I have tried to take the pump out of the tank but there is a problem in so much that the fuel pipe are corroded badly, afraid to use too much force.
Would it be possible to drill a hole in the pump plate and siphon out that way or is there mechanism lurking below the plate?
As I mentioned HELP PLEASE!
Afraid the end of Land rover ownership spanning 58 years from series1 to disco 300tdi. Don't think I could manage the newish disco 3 / 4 far too expensive, to old to do own maintenace.
