glad it's an easy fix for you.

that's the exact 'switch' at the pedal......a bitch to get to and bloody expensive to replace too.....hence I've decided to ditch the whole electronic injection system....

I had a manual RRC previously and an auto disco now.......would I go back to manual if I were to change the car.......NO WAY...... I made a mistake getting a jap-import disco....as they all have the EDC....but it comes with less rust...much less...so you can't win all..... Just changed the...

I've missed the laning trip that was on 17/10....so would definitely like to be there for the next one...and know a few more people local to me.......if anyone fancy going out, I am always free over any weekends....

Started the project of swapping the EDC fuel injection pump to the mechanical pump......so far everything is a straight forward swap...apart from now having fueling issue. After fitting the mechanical pump, aligned the timing belt where 9mm drill bit slotted into injection pump sprocket, mark...

from the description on the 1st post...it seems my disco is doing similar thing now.....it's a 97' 300tdi auto with EDC by the way..... Symptoms (1): - acceleration (foot down on loud pedal): fine - deceleration (foot away on loud pedal) : fine - cruising (foot on loud pedal lightly) : engine...
