Land Rover Series III: Fuel filter change, sedimenter drain and full fuel system bleeding procedure
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 жов 2024
- In this episode I replace my Land Rovers fuel filter, drain the water separator and go through the procedure of a full fuel system bleed on a diesel engine. This could save you a lot of trouble of you run out of diesel by the side of the road and need to bleed the system to be able to restart the car after refueling. Hope you enjoy this video and check out my other videos. Thanks for watching. Jamie.
I've never seen that kind of fuel filter on a series. It looks a lot more effective than the inline filter I have.
Hello there. I am not so experienced with these old Land Rovers but the filter I have is in the workshop manual that I have. Jamie
Good videos. Your sedementor sometimes gathers algae in it. Best to remove and give it a good clean. Good old Land Rover, they make it so easy to get to these things. 😂👍
Thank you for your tip. When the weather gets warmer I think will drain fuel tank, rinse it and replace the sedementor to be sure. The is also a rust repair I can get to better with the tank out. Jamie 😊
That's a really helpful video - thank you!
Thank you for your comment. Really happy you found it helpful. Jamie
Very helpful. --- Thanks for the great upload. ---
Thank you for kind comment and super happy you found it useful. More stuff coming soon on the land Rover. Jamie
Great Video!
What kind of anti-freeze do you use in combination with distilled water?
Best regards from Germany 😊
Hello from Germany. I will flush out the whole coolant system soon and refill with the green coolant and mix it to cope with Finnish winters. Thanks for watching. Jamie
This has been really helpful thanks. I made the same mistake with the fuel filter and now have to bleed the whole system. Out of interest how long did it take to prime the whole system. I’ve been trying for about 15 minutes and gave up. Any help would be great.
Hello there and glad the video helped but sorry to hear you're having trouble bleeding. It didn't take long at all to bleed. Are you sure there are no leaks anywhere and everything is tightened?
@@jamiedowson6482 Thanks Jamie. It was running until I changed the fuel filter and then I’ve struggled to get any fuel through so I was interested in how long it took. I’ll try the bleed nipples over the weekend. Wish me luck.
@@brettatkinson8216 did you manage to bleed it over the weekend?
@@jamiedowson6482 Hi Jamie - I didn’t as it’s been raining and freezing cold. Ill give it a try this weekend hopefully and let you know
💪
thanks!!!
Hope it was helpful ☺️
Hi, can you post a link or direct me to where I could find a copy of the procedure manual? Thanks
Hello there. Unfortunately I don't know a link to a copy of the manual. If you find on please let me know. Jamie
Made the same mistake. Been bleeding the system like crazy, but still got air bubbles.
Haha yes it was a little frustrating as I was about to go home but learning something new is always great. Thanks for you comment. Jamie
