Yo all following on from my post running out of money, it seems to be air!!! every time it happened i.e car losing power, i changed something then bleed the system and a few days or weeks later the problem would come back.
But after changing nearly the entire fuel system i then went to basics...
thanks terry will have a look at that as well, should i say it but all seems okay at the moment!!! new lift pump on and yes the bend on the leaver was slightly longer on the gen part !! also on the old lift pump you are able to remove a screw at the top and when you lift the cap of it had a...
Hi Dave thanks for your post, to be honest i don't think it is been caused by a tree hugger, the sedimenter should have been cleaned in January as part of a service by land rover and i thought it was, when i tried to check it for dirt which would have give me a indication it was dirt in the...
I did check all the pipes when doing the tank and the sediment filter, i got a new lift pump this morning but they had to order the gasket! so if weather ok will fit it tomorrow, there does seem more resistance on the leaver then the other pump even before its fitted?
while fitting the tank...
I was thinking about tiga's post regarding the non gen Lift Pump and now yours l3on. i think it's worth another try will order one tomorrow and get a gen part and give it a go.
thanks to all that have given me the help.

Well the problem is still there another few hundred quid up the drain! drove up to Amble today around 45/50 mile parked up, 2 hours later on my way home in 5th car died, did not stall just lost all power, it started to slow i dropped down the gears and when it went into 3rd the power can back on...
the pump is non Gen, land rover did not have one in stock had to get on from a local garage, at that time it happened 3 or 4 times that day. after replacing the lift pump the problem stopped for over a month.
cant take the tank back as the new one is one the car but i have the sediment bowl...
Well decided to if i was going to take the tank off it would better just to fit a new one, as if any problem would not get a new one due to bank holiday, i checked the sediment filter just to check if any crap in, and the drain screw snapped off in my hand!!!! so had to get one of them as well...
Thank you both, it was a job is not wanting to do but i think its the only thing i can try!!.
might be a stupid question but if i remove the sender from the tank can you then see inside the tank ?
many thanks Marc

I have had it now for about 5 months and I have spent loads of money trying to cure a intermittent problem I have had.
While driving normally accelerating in 3,4,5 gear the car loses power, it can be while accelerating or driving along at 70, the car does not...
