Land Rover Td5

[mark hughes]

Any one know of an easy way of changing the fuel sender unit in a 90 Td5, looks a big job to me.

Can't tell you an easy way, my guess would be that there's only one way and thats to drop the tank. When our Td5 tank pump packed up we had to remove the tank to replace - it's a Landy, lots of faults built in...

HI MARK we drop the tank mate on the td5:thumbdown: but on the 200 tdi there where a metal cover all the best jon :thumbup:

When my pump went I scoured the forums and found some dimensions to cut a hole in the floor to get at it. In the end I chickened out and got the garage to drop the tank. There wasn't much gap between the floor and the tank to get it wrong. If you put a blanking plate over the hole afterwards it would make it easier to get at it next time!

how different is the 90 to the 110?

 

we (2) dropped the tank and put it back in in under an hour on my 110 a month ago

 

there was only 4 nuts and 2 jubbilee clips to undo, drop the tank, twist a bit and undo the 4 fuel pipes (push fit things)

 

once the tanks out the sender / pump unscrews a bit and lifts out

 

 

of course they may be totally different

hi chap a word of warning, if it is a high pitched sqealing and sometimes struggles to start it may not be the pump after changing mine we realised it was o rings in the injctors.

Sound like the perfect landrover mine never seems to be over 1/4 full.
