no undo the mats after pushing the back seats forward and there is a big round piece with screws take the screws out and you will see the top of the fuel pump the top of it is like a jam jar lid unscrew to the left , and when you have take it out there is a bit of a filter on the bottom clean this as well as replacing the big filter.hope this helps

There's no pump in the tank of the L series as far as I'm aware. I could be wrong though.

maybe I am to Nodge but I do not know the series diesel, but I was presuming it was same as early freelander td4.

The "lift pump" on the L Series is a hand operated bulb by the jack under the bonnet - that primes the system and the main HP pump does everything after that.

Like most other traditional diesel pumped engines then.

Some diesels don't have lift pumps but most will have.

I've taken out what is supposed to be a pump but doesn't look like a pump ,its just the float and pipes for fuel in and out .

The lesson is, read the replies before starting the work

And the question is, why do you need to get to a pump that doesn't exist?

I wondered that one myself.

lyndbo · Apr 26, 2016

I read the first reply guys ,then started work on it and explained its not a pump aimed at teddywood .That should answer your replies guys .

Question. When is a fuel pump not a fuel pump? Answer. When it's a fuel pickup and gauge sender unit.
