This is turning into a "wanted" section! LOL. Might as well join in... Does anyone want to sell me a landy 4 cylinder 2.25 5 main brg engine so I can do a total rebuild?
Go on, go look under those benches for an unwanted, unloved 2.25...

No idea, we suspect it had a little too much water to drink. Got stuck in some deep water and after it stalled it wouldn't start again. Hopefully just contaminated fuel though. The other silver lining of course is that I own a fender. The disco is my mates haha.

Not good. Hopefully just the fuel though. I really need to check mine is water tight. No good having a snorkel if the airbox isn't i guess.

anyone fancy going out and perhaps some lanes today? I know it's fairly late already.

jai_landrover · Jan 26, 2014

Lee what's up with it??

It died in a bomb hole full of water. It doesn't look like it has taken in water but now won't start. Bump started it courtesy of piperpa27 and it sounded like a bag of hammers. My money is on fuel contamination

I neither suggested or advocated it. Either way it didn't work. Tried to get the injectors out first but they wouldn't budge. Hey ho

There is a sediment bowl by the rear axel, drivers side. Drain it and see what comes out. Better to do it before dark.

Try taking out the glow plugs and cranking it over.
