Good test for that put that rubber pipe into can and suction side of pump and see what comes out when hand priming if nowt then pump needs attention

Well done both of you at least you know where to look

Good tip I didn’t do that 😀

If you can open up the clamps and reuse the m then no need to worry about the rivets , only need then if you need to make a new clamp and rivet it on I would strip and clean and have a check, I got a surprise and found two snapped leaves on one side , so I chopped down the 2nd shortest to match...

Once you get spring off , then either Couple G clamps or put in vice and there is a both goes through middle about 8mm you can buy the part or use an 8mm Allen bolt , I’ve done both There is the clamps around springs to remove too just open up with chisel/ big screwdriver to release leaves Undo...

You don’t hang around ☺️ at least you have new springs then all around

Forgot to mention you can also check the free camber and compare with spec in handbook My new rear springs were quite close to what they should have been before fitting

Fairly easy to check, and clean up and put back together

The hanger bolt centres on mine is 90mm with a 12mm gap before spring hits chassis, Note the angle of the dangle on mine it’s much more vertical than your hanger To me it suggests a weakened spring, think I counted 11 leaves on yours as it should be but are they all intact of one or more...

Shouldn’t have thought you could fit them wrong way round , did you say you had fitted new springs Can you post a pic of the whole spring I’ll measure my hanger lengths tomorrow, I have an 88 diesel,, should be 11 leaves with 9 leaves just on the petrol

Apologies was thinking you wanted the outer sleeving so I think you’re right it should pull out , I would be tempted to turn on wipers a few secs while pulling It looks like the square end fits to motor so if it was pulled out from motor might be able to unscrew it by hand as the spiral but like...

Not done mine before but looks like the cable stays where it is after you remove nut numbered 5 If you want drive cable out you need up to do the following actions

too late now but fixing the oil pressure light should have been at top of list 😨. Should be able to check main and con rod bearings with sump off on a still day See manual and parts book here http://smithies.co.nz/land_rover/ Is it a 3 or 5 mb engine Was there much oil in when you drained...

There’s some additional parts too here http://smithies.co.nz/land_rover/
