hi everyone i need to fit a new fuel pump in my 110 td5 defender
is this a job that is quite hard to do yourself. cheers
 
Job itself is easy, but on the defenders you have to drop the tank unlike the discos which had a flap in the floor. Or do what I've seen some bodgers do and cut a hole in the floor!
Just be careful of the thread it's only plastic so if you cross thread it you knacker the whole tank like someone did to my disco :(
 
Hi
Just make sure the tanks totally empty, you wouldnt belieave how heavy it feels even with a small amount of fuel in.

Before you lower it to the ground support it on a high box or something and dissconect the fuel lines carefully dont break the fuel line connectors there expensive to replace.

As you can probally guess i did the opposite to everything above and made it a hard expensive job.

We all have to learn hope the above helps
