    if its only tracked to the connector the loom is or was around £50 plus fitting which you can do yourself if your good on spanners or couple of hours at dealer ! quick fix is to use electrical cleaner on the plug / socket see if it make difference and go from there there are cases where its bad and filled half the ecu up with oil ! ;(
  2. twistedhicap
    also how old is it has it had an injector wireing harness can be worth checking out the ecu conector isnt tracking with oil over it worth a quick visit to The LAND ROVER ADDICT Forums - Index do a serch on td5 running problems orr join and post there a helpfull bunch there David

    When out doing the alps tour one of our guys had a td5 110 on the way up to valdesere the tubo let go it sheared the shaft one end so it wouldnt spin ! was slugish and well smoked well ! also could be something like the mass air flow sensor on its way out or kaked up then it will be sending the ecu the wrong info there is also a crank speed sensor on the bell housing and i have heard that this can collect muck on it (i think its amagnetic proximity sensor ) and also give false readings and people who have cleaned it report it makes a good difference

    i had same isssues on my Pezzolato i had to take tank off in end and steam clean it out ! worked a treat and been good as gold since ! the lift / priming pump may have a gauze in it to that would need cleaning other than that make sure all hoses and pipe work is sound and tight ! see how it goes !

  17. twistedhicap
    unlike most kit the chipper drowns out the noise from the engine so if you dont realise it its to late usually ! dont forget to check the ring gear before fitting the new one just to be sure
  18. twistedhicap
    Piece of cake as im an ag fitter by trade lol ! Not difficult at all get good 20 amp rated push button and use good cable and conectors and fit it in the cable that feeds the small solinoid actuation cable on the started motor !
  19. twistedhicap
    yes and we got round it buy putting a push button in series to the starter solinoid so you have to turn and hold the key then press the button in to start !
