Possibly feeling SMUG.

Just been looking for this exact info...Off up the garage in a moment to check mine...have to admit that when I was rebuilding my rear suspension (completely) that the hubs came off and I wanted the sensors out...Maybe thinking using a punch and ball pein hammer not the best idea..:rolleyes:o_O

Nodge would the crank sensor test be to crank the car and see if the Rev counter needle moves or is there a more involved test for that issue on the TD4?

Took these .. The ‘wing’ like moulding in first photo ‘sliiiide’ in into the groves in the second photo

Found this photo showing a ‘good’ mount you can see the two slots that the plastic sleeve on the pump slide into. A simple fit after a fair while wondering/trying to attach the damn thing..

Looking at your photo more closely it looks like your ‘mount’ is broken or damaged a bit.. will try to remember to get a good close up of it for reference later today..

FBH dosing pump? Is that the circled item on the right in the photo I have marked? If so it actually mounts to the plastic housing circled on the left. It’s a ‘push fit’ and I must have spent more than a reasonable amount of time trying to figure out how it goes on. Once you manage to fit it...

Yesterday(Saturday) was a ‘weird one’ for me as work hadn’t called due to lack of… work?🤔 It’s becoming a ‘thing’ but not one to miss an opportunity I got up to the garage after a bowl of porridge and a cup of tea. A mixed bag of tasks, first of which was the refitting of the fuel filter/pump...

See ‘Brakes Bled’ post..

Okay brakes have been bled on the TD4. As the whole of the rear brakes/brake lines were replaced I wasn’t expecting it to be a straight forwards experience and that’s pretty much how things went..Anyhoo ‘which method’ did I use..? ALL OF THEM BASICALLY. No single method worked on its own in...

Minor update.. Cylinder reseal kit arrived… Better get busy..

Not an issue Ali all this ‘guff’(Scots for ‘stuff/things’) was removed during the strip down etc. The cylinders were also replaced the MOT before the failure so those little bolts etc were replaced then. Just been up there ‘fiddling’ today and remade the cylinder to flexi hose brake pipe. Copper...

True!!

Couple of things since I posted earlier.. I work Friday through to Tuesday night/Weds morning. Sometimes if it’s quiet I don’t get a shout or msg.. I just roll through the evening waiting for stuff. Anyhoo thats what happened today.. no mention of work etc. was looking forward to a night at...

I have a couple of options other than ‘the two man’ set up. I have a vacuum method although it’s not the best example and the other is good old Gunsons.. depending on which one is still operational.. pretty sure the TEVES system doesn’t mind Gunsons too much.. if it does then ‘Big Sis’(who isn’t...

Evenin’ Folks Just a quick question as to bleeding the brakes on an FL1 with ABS. The rear brake lines have been replaced completely from the ‘modulator’(?) so I will be bleeding the whole system. I have a 5 litre can of the DOT 4 stuff in anticipation. Can anyone just confirm the sequence...

Removing all that was an education in itself. I could have bought new arms etc but instead bought a 20 tonne press. bush removal kit and new OEM bushes. All because of a 50p sized ‘soft spot’ on the rear of the nearside sill.(MOT failure!) ‘Inquisitive Me’ then started ‘poking’ things and...

Heading up garage!!

Just another update on The Never Ending Story(NOT LIMAHL) Was away in my truck last week having started back having had 9 days at home(working on ‘The Obvious’) then I realised that all that was needed ‘pre start up’ was the replacement of the shock assemblies of the rear suspension and hubs...
