So my defender stopped starting, go figure huh. In this video I pull the injectors out and have a look at the sealing rings. Turns out they were alright, but I changed them anyway. instagram @adventuredefender
I’ve always been a big supporter from the E30 days, through to extensive travel and van build, it’s nice to see something new which is always inspiring. I remember me waving like some school girl when you was driving that hilarious sangsongthing back from Poland through the port and the whole mob is hanging out the side waving back. Keep up the good work.
Your Land Rover repair videos are a lifesaver! I've been grappling with a persistent issue on my TD5 involving excessive black smoke and noticeable power loss. Your expertise in troubleshooting and fixing Land Rovers has been evident in your content, so I was wondering if you could shed some light on this particular issue. Your insights could not only help me but also countless others facing similar challenges. Looking forward to your thoughts on this!
Im doing this repair now with no locking tool for the camshaft, no special tool for the injector puller and the cust didnt order the 1 time use only tappets and jamb nuts, rocker shaft bolts. Let the fun begin
Hey man I got the same issue with my discovery 2 changed the pump didn’t work changed the fuel regulator and filter again nothing fixed this is the next for me to do did this help at all?
Finally got round to watching your videos. Which type of O.ring and copper seals have you used? Original LR, or aftermarket? and did you use a new injector harness when you put it all back together again? - as there was no follow up video, was the problem fixed?
Hey. Theyre original land rover ones, as i found theyre a little bit thicker. And theyre so cheap anyway its not worth the toss i dont think. Original harness as it had no issue when tested. And yes, it's all alright now :)
This is a great video! I will be removing my cylinder head soon to install a new head gasket; I will obviously have to remove the injectors and may as well install new copper washers and seals. Just one thing, noticed what I thought were swan neck pliers with one arm missing used to extract the injectors?! I was told to use the Land Rover Injector Removal Slide Hammer - but this definitely costs a pretty penny for a once off use! No chance of doing any damage with the modifed swan neck pliers? Any tips?
@@matthewmorrone883 That's what I've been told, and for confidence, you can turn the crank a full rotation and it should move freely and not hit any obstructions.
