    If these are britpart they will explode if you blow harder on them. Or even take them out of the plastic wrap.

    2004 TD4 2.0D questions

    Synergy 2 is a piggy back on fuel pump tricking it, it's more like a cheat device. The "old" td4 has enough power, only do it if you really need more power not just for the thrill. I think a remap will do better although I am not a fan of those either.

    That is good enough. I personally use this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/302516889046 The vonhaus one on ebay lasted two usages. And I don't like the metal style that are heavy, difficult to store and carry.

    Drain fuel tank

    well there is a sender unit in the tank, use that to your advantage give it 12v and hook to a pipe in front. Or, under the seat you can remove the sender unit and then have a big nice round hole straight into it.

    Heating in 2.5V6 2001 Freelander 1

    Check the middle of the V where the thermostat housing is located. That is usually where is pi$$ing coolant from. If it overheated or ran without coolant for a few seconds, head gasket(s) are shot. In regards to only 75K miles... well the low mileage ones are the ones to be avoided cause the...
