That's what I thought.....I just wasn't sure if they pointed in opposite directions.....Thanks.

Hi all. Just wondering if anyone has a link to an exploded view of the clutch master cylinder. I am about to fit the new repair kit but can't remember which way the seals face on the piston :( Thanks.

I see your point.....Fingers crossed it's pressure transducer and not solenoid. From what I've been reading the transducer seems to be a common failure item.....

Thanks sierra....Pressure Transducer disconnected and same fault code so, new transducer ordered. Thanks again for your assistance. :)

Sierra. My warning light comes on after 10 or so miles and goes out after I turn off ignition but, will come back on again as soon as I drive into first bend. I am getting the 04-02 Direction control valve current out of range on my Nanocom. Fault wont erase. Where do I go from here?....Thanks...

Yes. I have a Nanocom and I am getting the 04-02 Direction control valve 2 out of range?......No leaks. :(

Did you get this problem sorted. I have the same fault reading on my ACE system with the exception that my yellow ACE warning lamp comes on after the car is driven for a few miles. Goes out again once the engine is switched off but will come back on again as soon as a bend is negotiated?

Hi all. Has anybody got a link to this task. I'm halfway through the process but can't be sure where to disconnect linkage to L/H gearstick and I don't want to pull and damage any wiring connected to the boxes. Working on my driveway so access and clearance is minimal. Thanks all.

Thanks for the responses guys. Will check that vent loop when I can. I would have expected a hiss when releasing the fuel cap if it was blocked though sierra?....

Thanks Raywin. I hope it's not a pressure problem. I don't think it is as I only have an issue when the fuel level drops to just below half a tank. I can also drive it to the orange low fuel level warning lamp coming on once it's running :(

Hi all. I have an ongoing problem with my disco td5 fuelling. I have had this problem since I got the vehicle 4 years ago and have intermittently tried to solve it to no avail. Basically, I can't use approximately half a tank of fuel. Once the gauge reads just below the half tank mark, I get...

Lot's of information there to think about. I might just start with the timing chain and see where that takes me but, thanks for all the detailed information. You certainly know these engines and your way around them. :) Cheers.

Yes, I will have to. It would be the right place to start.....Does that pump have a slotted mounting set-up where the pump can be turned on the housing to adjust timing? Cheers.

Thanks for the info....I must have a more serious problem than I thought so. I don't think it's compression because it has plenty of power and torque when running. So, worn pump, timing chain stretched or timing way out, although it's not smoky except under hard acceleration. I know the pump has...

What is yours like for starting Dean?. Mine is a pig to start from cold and not much better when hot. She'll always fire up but requires 1 minute of Glow plugs to get there. I was hoping you could help out seeing as you are the only other member with the mechanical FIP. Cheers.

Looking Looking forward to seeing them :)

Well done. Did the Mechanical FIP conversion cost much?. I am asking because I would love to have a spare just in case my own one packs up. :( I always wondered was it just a case of taking the top off and replacing with a mechanical set-up with minimal internal work required.

Looking forward to seeing them. I have a soft spot for that engine :) Is yours run on a mechanical or electrical FIP.....It's quite a long engine and fills my range rover classic engine bay. You must have worked miracles to squeeze it into a series 2 :o

I agree with you about the CC's having a determining factor in fuel economy but I can only report that which I have seen for myself. The fact that all normal road speeds for all conditions are available at such low rpm's are going to cancel out the fuel usage benefits of a smaller engine versus...

I suppose it's like any other engine. If they are looked after throughout their lifetime, they will function better and be more frugal than if they're not....Did you run one yourself?.....I have to say that this particular engine was returning a far better fuel mileage than 30mpg. I do believe...
