    Defender td5 woes

    I had something very similar in my Td5 110 and that was the lift pump, but it was noisy all the time, I did the filter (and filter head) and then Injector washers, loom and then eventually the lift pump and that fixed it. If it does turn into that there is a great method of changing them that...

    So age is less important I just need a manual 300 or 200 for that matter. I'm guessing auto needs some sort of electric fuel pump instead of mechanical?

    I have a friend with a 200 in a 110 1989. I was always amazed at the amount of space in the front of her engine bay , she also left the fan and cowl off. Messes with my head when I look at it!

    110 1985 200/300tdi engine conversion (link to idiots guide ...) if anyone has one

    I read I should use early 300 engines as later ones have some electrical fuel tomfoolery is this important? I have seen the seatbox modifications. I know it's horses for courses but if the 300 was an ok option it would make purchase considerably easier as the 200 are getting rarer it seems.

    so by that you mean you would use the r380 gearbox and all 300 tdi engine ancillaries , bearing in mind i have no engine in this (there is a lt77 fitted) Prop shafts are also removed thats not really a big deal as i have little to re-use.

    Thanks for your time, i have been looking this morning at u tube videos (its raining) of radiator / bracket alterations to fit disco 200tdi in a land rover , what are the major differences i will find, as the disco 200 is obviously a lot more common and i would like to keep the LT77 gearbox .

    I seem to be struggling with the search on landyzone and wondered if someone could give me a link to a definitive guide to fitting a 300tdi in my already engineless 110 which would have been a 2.5 at the begining of its life i bought it with engine already removed, so its a blank canvas. I don't...
