Have you checked the fuel filter housing? I think there is a rubber diaphragm in there that perishes and lets air into the system.

Has anyone had a problem with the threads holding the timing belt tensioner pulley? How did you fix it. 3.0 L year 2000 turbo diesel LWB with 300,000 miles on the clock. It's possible that this has had 4 or 5 new timing belts in it's life. Can a part be replaced or can the hole be drilled out...

More on the Land Rover theme, spotted these when wifey was shopping earlier today, the same shop had gilets made with 18 plastic bottles

I had something slightly similar a few years back, the rubber diaphragm in the top of the fuel filter housing had perished and started letting air in. Your symptoms sound the same, cutting out going downhill, and not starting with a warm engine. Installed a whole new fuel filter housing and it's...

Noticed recently when accelerating hard in 4th gear it's slipping a bit. Just wondering what's the normal...

Check the brakes, especially the hand brake isn't stuck on.

Best of luck Bob. Have to admit I enjoyed seeing a few land rovers getting written off.

Been following your trials and tribulations over the last few weeks. I think it was the sump plug that might have been the final nail in the coffin. GLWS and hopefully you'll find a good one in the future. Been welding, wire brushing and painting my chassis so have an idea what you went through...

I thought it was just the chassis welds that had to be done before the test, thanks for the headsup about the cills. Time for some upside down welding practice:obscene-drinkingfa:. Pic below is chassis weld before paint

A tin tent LOL, Jeremy would love that. What I don't understand is why only the headlights come on? Hopefully someone else knows more than we do.
