Hello everyone.
Just joined the forum , with the hope to learn more about my landrover and get some advice on issues I am having.
Landrover series 3 has been sitting in the garage for a good few years as a work in progress. Now up for getting it going and on the road. Normally start it every few months to confirm still fires up etc. Last time started in Jan 2013 and after battery charge worked fine.
Today however not having any of it. Think it is fuel related so hope I can get some advice on how to proceed.
Engine does not turn over , tries and tries but nought.
There is fuel in the tank , battery is good.
Don't think fuel is getting thru pump and up into engine.Not able to see fuel in pipes leading up to carb , and none in there when disconnect to check.
Tried pumping lever on fuel pump , does nothing.
Do you think it is time for new fuel pump, or is there anything else I can do ?
cheers
