    I don't remember that film. It would be difficult viewing in a shop, but we had VHS and tv by then. I would have appreciated a film on a lawnmower governor. That was the hardest concept for me.

      Problem here is finding an engine - not that many diesels cars here = looked at the cheapest X5 and that was almost C$12,000, (that was at the other side of Canada) and as I have found from experience buying an engine on the floor unheard can be an expensive prospect! Plus, you may need a lot of other parts not included with the engine

    A couple of queries:
    1) does all your work mean I don’t need to do all this measuring to determine the ideal spacer?
    2) if I must do all this measuring, is it possible to do it with the engine in-situ?

    Mike. Im swapping my v8 to a 300 tdi. Watched loads of your video's. Brilliant information. My question is, Could i use the in tank fuel pump as the lift pump?
    I would remove the fine mesh on the pump intake as you have mentioned . It is a low pressure pump for the carburettor, not the injection type.
    Thanks
    Jim.

    • @BritannicaRestorations
      @BritannicaRestorations  10 місяців тому +1

      The lift pump on a 300Tdi is supposed to be 4 PSI - similar to the carb fuel pump, so you should be OK

    • @jimfrench8105

    Not sure about the 300tdi but other Bosch VE pumped engines I have seen with a lift pump have a restrictor in the return banjo on the injector pump thus stopping fuel flowing flat out back to tank. Is this the case on the 300tdi Mike ?

    • @BritannicaRestorations
      @BritannicaRestorations  2 роки тому +1

      It is to keep a constant pressure in the injector pump - one common cause of poor starting is the mixing up of the feed and return banjo bolts!

      @@BritannicaRestorations Hi Mike, I took out my aluminium spacer today. The gaskets I removed were old and compressed so spacer and two gaskets was 6mm. I got Genuine LR gaskets to replace the spacer with but when I measured them they were only about 0.5mm thick each. Something to be aware of! I used two gaskets I had in stock that were about 0.7mm each and three of the Landrover gaskets to give me 3mm total, I greased them all up to stick them together and the wad of gaskets was 3mm finished. Didn’t seem to make any more power but loads of diesel spraying out when I opened the bleed screw with the engine running! Can’t do any harm.
      Thank you very much for doing the research into these problems! Please could you show us how to stop the rover cover gasket from repeatedly leaking ? I have tried every brand of decent gasket they all last less than 12months! Why ?

    Whats your thoughts on replacing the mechanical lift pump with a electric pump?

    • @muddyboots1881
      @muddyboots1881 2 роки тому

      We did just that when our 200Tdi quit while on holiday. We purchased a generic electric fuel pump (perhaps Peugeot hatchback) from one of those hole-in-the-wall car parts shops and drove home another 1000kms, no problemo. No idea of the working pressure but - if I understood Mike correctly - the injection pump doesn't need a lot of help. However, that being said, I can't speak to the longevity as I replaced it with the original mechanical a couple thousand kilometres later.
