    Underpowered in 4th gear!!! 300tdi auto

    Your gona go around in circles until you are confident it aint them tho. I have tested injectors many times and they look ok but ended up sticking another set in and wondered why I fooked about in the first place. Only other option is overhaul yur own ones as the other chappie says.

    repair panels welding

    If you want a decent job its new panels, I took my steps off and got somebody to make me up some box section which I used to make tree/rock sliders, slid them over the sills and bolted them on.

    300tdi loosing oil

    I agree with that aswel, take the turbo pipe off leading to the manafold and see if its full of oil, might be the turbo thats passing oil. If the rings were as bad as you say I would expect a loss of compression in a derv engine and a bit of miss-firing in the morning with a slight missfire as...

    wanting to get into a real 4x4

    Nice big cumfy motor and fairly capable off road, derv seems to be under-powered and petrol will get you a divorce, the wife will be nice and warm tho until it blows a head gasket then if its one with the liner problems its a new engine. The road tax for the newer ones is fairly high aswel

    Underpowered in 4th gear!!! 300tdi auto

    Seems to me it was only a bit chuggy in the mornings until some clown fooked about with your injectors. Stick a set of new injectors in and start again.

    new disco 300tdi

    Perhaps the faults are connected a bad earth somewhere, perhaps the multi plug behind the dash. You can test the temp guage by earthing the sensor wire on the engine for a second, it will go right up to max. It is worth putting a meter on the battery and check what its putting out 14.5 volts...

    300tdi Stalling and Smoke

    He is right we used to do it all the time, but I still dont think it is necessary these days and I recal from years ago that we had the coating coming off the insides of the tank because of petrol, the coating was to stop the tank rusting and it shriveled up, peeled off and blocked them up...

    300tdi Stalling and Smoke

    Not seen waxed fuel for years now I wouldnt put anything in the tank, just make sure there is no water in the filters, and there always is, always a good practice to do a filter change leading into winter. When it was -20 a few years ago never got one of our vehicles with waxed fuel just water...

    300tdi Stalling and Smoke

    I agree with you and the blue smoke is probably black smoke, overfuelling and something as you say to do with the fuel pump freezing up, probably be fine after a good run. The white smoke too much fuel when engine cold and cant burn it and then hot it chucks out the black stuff. But as you say...

    fuel bleeding

    You said that you took the stop to bits, did you take out the plunger that stops the engine, I would coz if its fooked it wont pump fuel. Only other thing is the pump aint turning, pulley is but pump aint, key gone?

    Disco 300tdi, no heat and fluctuating temp gauge

    Run your vehicle up with the rad cap off, once it comes up to temp and the thermostat opens you should see circulation, if there is loads of air in the header tank then head gasket is probably gone, and its this air thats foking up your flow Make sure you have bled it properly, fill it...

    Freelander Clutch problems

    Unless its a new clutch you would be a fool not to change it.

    300tdi, smokes like hell on cold start

    Over-fueling normally gives loads of black smoke just like if the air filter was blocked, or injectors were fooked but remains hot or cold. In your case I bet its white smoke, and in this case fokal compression, timing out, "retarded", whats happening is it cant burn the fuel and hence the...

    clutch

    I guess you have to make sure all the bits are working as they should. The pedal is not sticking on the bushes inside at the pivot, just grab it and fee. I dont know if there is adjustment, but it would be at the slave. The clutch fork is not sticking in the gearbox, that would entail...
