We've also had a Landrover engineer out who said it could be a runaway job, he let us borrow a locking tool for the fuel pump and suggested we can age it.

The problem we have is the value of the car, so far we have had 2 diagnostic scans run on the car with nothing coming back. We have also had a Landrover specialist run I beleive t4 diagnostic on the car to no avail. It's not feasible to keep throwing money at it.

Basically the car was over feeling and now we are getting nothing. We took the top two sections off the old pump and since doing that we have had no fuel coming through the pump. We know 100 percent that we got the cam back in place from the Middle part of the pump.

Is there anyway to by pass the ecu, as we had the same problem with the old pump it wasn't letting fuel through?

Ok no the pump is from an omega. It's really driving us mad.

Little update, we have swapped the fuel pump with a tested pump and now the car won't start, the i tank pump is pushing fuel through but the new pump is not working. We have cracked the fuel pipes to the injectors and no fuel is coming through at all.

Also what does relay 12 do? Could I open up turn ignition on and blip throttle to see if it's moves fully open?

Why can you take the mid section off? I thought you'd only mess with timing if you took complete pump off?

Intercooler has oil in it but most do nothing out of the ordinary. Can you take the lid off the top of the fuel pump to have a look at its workings? I know fuel pumps are a pain and need to be timed up so don't want to mess with it to much

Hi thank you for the replys it's been on a snap on solus and a autel maxidas. With no joy, it switches off with no issues and doesn't run away, I've taken the air manifold off and it doesn't look like oil has been getting in. We have fired it up and restricted the air intake to try calm the...

Would just like to say high, I am from Halifax and own a p38 diesel, and a little mga.:)

Sorry My first post is just about a problem I have. But thanks in advance to anyone who can help. Firstly I have a 1998 p38 diesel, the car is an auto and has done 180k miles with full service history. Had regular oil changes and been maintained regardless of the cost it's been in the family...
