    Project: The impossible utopia - Freelander S TD4 3 door (2002)

    the wires break down insure the sheath so you wouldn't see it by eye., Have you had the injectors professionally cleaned or used an ultrasonic bath? This thread may be of some assistance with misfire but point you in several directions (boost pipes problems/ egr/ injector's going bad/ turbo...

    Project: The impossible utopia - Freelander S TD4 3 door (2002)

    they tend to fail lower down also where the wire crosses the top of the gearbox due to heat Be worth ruling out the wiring before delving deeper, if that dont cure it you could be looking at a duff injector

    cant you hacksaw off the old filter from the old mount then re use it?
  18. LUKBENPHI

    Dave Smith's Freelander

    it could also be that the thread is too long for the filter so when you nip it up your not nipping it up against the seal but on the end of the thread leaving the seal loose, have the filter off and see if there is any obstructions or sign the thread has bottomed out in the filter

    Dave Smith's Freelander

    I've had that before an an old mondeo where the thread the filter spins on to was loose on in the housing so had to be tweaked up with 2 large nuts screwed on to the thread so they locked together then turned the outer most one to tighten the thread.without damaging it
