My Disco is not running too well at the moment so amongst other jobs i decided to renew the injector o rings and copper washers. Not a difficult job i thought. Now wish i hadn't disturbed them. First time i used Britpart parts but the motor then sounded so much louder so on a second attempt i used land rover branded parts but the motor still sounds loud a bit like a knackered old transit van. I have been meticulous ensuring all the seal surfaces are clean. The copper washers i was supplied with were flat copper washers, they look like they would need quite a force to deform to make a seal. i have seen on the forum reference to ribbed washers. Any ideas, or could it be a knackered injector.
Best regards
