Pump runs a treat Neilly, Battery is fine, fuel at FPR is next stop..

Latest news...checked cam timing & all good. Checked engine fuses, passenger compartment & under seat, all good. Running out of ideas now..Who would thing stalling a motor would cause so many issues!

So, did a fuel purge, looked all over & no leaks. Really got me scratching my head now! Is it possible for the Cam Chain to jump a link & throw the timing out? If that were the case would`nt it show up on the scanner?....o_O

Alrightee! Did the crash button, no change. Put the scanner on & got this. Any ideas?

Ideal! Can hear the fuel pump running but will give it a good firm press in the mornin & see what gives.

Guessed a fuel problem, wondered if a fuse had popped & stopped the electrical side of the injectors.

Not checked it yet, gotta find the damned thing first!.

Morning All! Got an odd thing happening on our Defender 110. Drive along, no problem. Try & stop, BIG problem!. Pedal is real hard & not much brake effort... What i have tried so far is :- Stop engine & pump vac out of system. Hold pedal down, start up & pedal sinks a bit. With engine running...

Evenin all! Our trusty Disco 2 has thown a wobler in the Auito box department. The full story... First thing it did was pop a cooler supply pipe off. No big deal, new pipe & oil then crack on. Thinking to my self, give it a hundred miles or so then do the oil filter & oil change. About 40 miles...

Many thanks all! OK, took the plug off the switch & put a link between the connectors. Had a look, we got light! Seems the switch is letting volts through but not enough current. Swiped a switch out of a transit we have here & all good. Never come across this before! Switches normaly work, or...

Must admit it was "interesting" with hot oil running down my arm..... says something on the gearbox sump about temps between 66-80 deg.. So guessed it was done hot but would like to check fer sure!.

Update on the pipe saga. Local specialist cant get a pipe for a week or so... Oh well, best do a repair to get going for a bit. The flex pipe had popped of the snap fit union. Took union off & thorough clean with brake cleaner & rough up with Emery cloth. Next is a cloth with Brake cleaner on...

Thanks for that jamesmartin! Thought i might be able to get away with filling through the pipe. DARN IT! Might have to be clipped on for a day or two untill i can get a new one.

Evening all! Heres an odd one... Got a call today from my good lady sitting in her Disco2 going nowhere & theres a big pool of oil under the car. Went out with a chain & dragged it in. Had a look after work & a gearbox oil cooler pipe had popped of the steel end right by the air filter box...
