Thank you, I have read about that, and dread the thaught of doing it..... but thank you for you imput I may be back in touch and ask for a couple of pictures if I need to get the grinder out....

Right ok that the in tank pump?

That's fine, just I just wanted to check in case it was something as simple as that but there's no leaks. And if once the pressure kit turns up it is reading less than it should and I need to replace the fpr does that need synchronised to the vehicle or is it just a bolt on part?

Appoliges for my miss wording, ok il give that a go, I've also ordered the fuel pressure test kit thing, to do that. You know the little "o" ring what goes in the fpr to seal the gauze filter bit in? If that had fell out with out me noticing on refitting would that cause lack of power?

Mine doesn't have the block thing, just a single pipe straight to air pipe what goes to the turbo?

Yes I can move it towards the turbo but need to put some force to move it and as soon as I let go it springs back to where it should. And There is a little pipe 6-8mm what goes from the waste gate valve ( what the rod goes to ) straight down to the air pipe?

Ok thank you, could it also be a turbo issue? I can move the linkage arm on the waste gate but by hand but I've just read a thing saying it could be the waste gate control valve??

Cheers thank you very much, il get one brought and give it a go and see what it reads, so with this I just undo the fpr sensor keep it plugged in and then fit the pressure test and then turn ignition to position ll? Or do I turn it over?

Hello thank you for that, the filter behind the fuel pressure regulator is fine, new one fitted when it was all put back together. I've unplugged the feed to the fpr and turned ignition on and there is a lot of fuel coming through, the pressure test is there something I can buy and just plug it...

Hello, ( hope this is the right place...) I have a 1999 TD5 defender 90, I've had a clyender head rebuild and ever since then I've had no power, on the flat it will get up to 50mph but as soon as it gets to a slight incline there is no power. On start up there is a little white/grey/blue smoke...
