I know the spark on it is strong now, and my bro-in-law checked all the electrics on it using a multi-meter and some other odd-looking gadgets, and I know he checked the timing belt too, but I appreciate the help. Believe me, I'm desperate to get this car back on the road, so any suggestions are...

I'm in Edinburgh, and the freelander is in my driveway. Thankfully its at least off the road! The red LED on the dash goes on when I lock the doors, and goes off when I unlock them, and I've tried disconnecting the battery, removing the fuses, replace, reconnect, and lock/unlock a whole bunch...

Hi Guys, Okay, my bro-in-law came over and gave me a hand testing stuff out, so here's the crack. 1) Tested each of the spark plugs, each smelled of petrol, but the spark was weak, so we've replaced the plugs. 2) Engine is turning over like before, but with a slight shudder to it now, like its...

Thanks, Darmain. Will give that a bash in the morning. Have been having a browse around the forums to see if I can locate the position of the fuel pump, after me and my old man had a look under bonnet and couldn't find it. Seems to be some variation between the models, with some having it...

Thanks for looking :) Unfortunately my Freelander decided to die on me yesterday, or hopefully just took a snooze, and i can wake it up with your help! 52 plate, Freelander 1.8 Serengeti 3dr Petrol Was driving home, suddenly started to lose power like I was running out of fuel. Didn't feel any...
