thanks you all , issue is fixed glad it was just a simple item this time , when i removed the old pump it was completely locked into place , based it with a hammer no budge

literally the last bolt that needed tightening

That’s a decent list of cars quite varied aswell

So sorry for the late replies the post hasn’t been so great and I’ve only just got the pump , I’m assuming the issue will be fixed once I manage to get the pump fitted as the old one when I taken it off and tested it was doing absolutely nothing and getting stuck . I have tired to fit the...

have you got any advice on we’re to start I’ve got a full day free tomorrow so if the weather permits I’m going to have a good go at it all see what exactly is wrong , I’ve been reading up and apparently some lift pumps have filters in ? So it might be worth me checking this along with making...

yeah I’ll get one in anyway I’m Half thinking it might just be full of crap as I was starting to run out of fuel when it happened managed to die for the 3rd time and I got into a petrol station, sadly I probably will have to get rid soon if it carry’s on being a money pit

From looking on other posts I’ve noticed manny people said they aren’t actually needed which is worrying me why mine is running so lumpy and dying especially both high rpms and idle

sorry I should have been a bit more specific it I did do this and it’s still the same

I will check everything that everyone has said don’t worry , as the car is my only one that is currently “runnable” I’ll be just getting it back on the road as soon as possible and then I’ll investigate the many hundreds of others issues , including the oil everywhere

thanks for the extra advice I’ve looked this morning and you are right when I unscrewed the bolt nothing came out pumped the lift pump to death no resistance no diesel coming out , to be honest I’m surprised the car is even running , I noticed lately I have to pump the accelerator when turning...

Messed with the lift pump this morning has absolutely no resistance not pumping deisel at all

Did you manage to sort the earlier smoking and timing issues. - yes full timing kit replacement, smoking was down to previous owner playing with the fuel pump Have you changed the diesel filter - less than 200 miles ago I did a full service Is air filter clean - looks all good took it off and...

i did this on the last service to fill the fuel filter this was about 200 miles ago , so ill have a go again

I’ve just had a look your right they are really cheap I’ll get one off those on order , I’m still unsure about the locking itself into gear , cause the only time I’m not applying accelerator is when the clutch is down which is why I thought of stalling plus the lack of power

I haven’t changed the lift pump at-all, no I didn’t even think of that , it was just with getting stuck in gear why stationary

Hi people , was wondering if you could give some advice over a possible issue I’m having that caused me to once again get stuck at the side of the roads, I’m sorry if this doesn’t read well or I miss out on some basic details I’m not good at the English language When driving my defender...

looks like I’m replacing it then , can’t seem to figure out where the vauge gar changes are from

Yeah I know but is it supposed to be a tight fit in the top of the cup or does it just freely sit in with movement allowed

Hi guys just a quick question and probably a stupid one I’m fixing my gear selector as it was full of mud , I have looked online and I can’t find much information I’m trying to find out how tight the connection should be between the lower gear lever and the nylon selector cup currently it’s...
