    Snorkel for 3.9 Disco 1 (ABS)

    No probs chap. It's all tucked away nicely in its quilt. Waiting. It's dream is a life straddling a V8. It's nightmare is me, an angle grinder and my triggers broom of a 300tdi. ;)

    Big diagnostic effort earlier.... Looks like our suspect is the lift pump. Nothing coming through when slackened the pipes off and turned him over. New lift pump should be here Tuesday for fittage during the week. At the same time I'm going to replace the rad as that's looking a bit...

    Mrnice... you have PM sir! I'm pretty sure it can be made to fit. I was planning on mating it to my 300tdi but have never got round to it as I'm a lazy sod and life just got in the way.

    It's the lift pump. But going to take the oppo to change the rad, fuel filter and give the intercooler a clean out at the same time that we do the lift pump. Also going to splash a bit of paint around the bits under the rad area.

    Didn't get to bearmach as change of plan in work! Probably gonna sort it over the weekend. Thomo, cheers for the offer but no need. Father in law is in trade and main dealer for Delphi... so it'll be a Delphi pump at the right price.

    The hugest thing to come out of LZ11... SWMBO actually saying she enjoys camping despite being a bit cold sat night. It made a heck of a difference being in a tent on the field - meant I got to stay up late and have a few sherbet with Les the total legend!!

    Snorkel for 3.9 Disco 1 (ABS)

    Got a brand shiny new safari snorkel for a 3.9 sat in the house. Everything is there even the cardboard template (that is currently laying flat on top of a cabinet), bar the big box it came in as it was easier to man handle the stuff out of the box. If I get chance I'll round it up and take...

    I thought everyone 'behind the scenes' did a bloody fantastic job considering we're a rag tag bunch from all corners of the country. I think the whole thing came together reet proper. I even enjoyed lami manating 20 odd bits of map and then piecing the jigsaw together on the Saturday. The...

    Drover is home. Smooth trip on shiny noo wagon. Breakdown lads suggested might be worth checking fuel lift pump etc first, in order of cheapness n access. So it might be pretty painless!
