Dear Johannes,
You really are a Gold mine of information, thank you. I will keep cleaning, while waiting for new injector loom. No idea how long that will take now with ports closed. Luckly I have a spare ECU, as I received a remapped one today from Allisport. Actually this is why I found the oil in the connector. Have to say the remapping has made a big difference to the low end torque. Anyway, I will take the cover off the ECU just to make sure all is clean.
I can say one thing, life is not boring with the Defender. Before I had a Suzuki Vitara known as a (Hairdressers Land Rover) in the UK. All I did was put petrol in it and check the oil once every 6mths, very boring : )
All the Best and Merry Christmas
on average i think prices are double in Sweden than the same vehcile in UK, but then I domt want to live in the UK : )
Hi Henrik,
Not as few as you may think. I live East of Kramfoss, and thought I was the only Landy owner, as I have seen non in these parts. Then last week I had a double take, as a dopple ganger of my Td5 90 came the other way. We were both suprised and waved : )
If the other 90 owner is around Kramfoss let me know.
All the Best MichaelHi Johannes,
You were 100% right about the staked nut system, what a pain to get the endfloat right. Also lucky I change the disks as the nut had not been staked and was only tightened to 60nm… Lucky escape …

Have you considered fitting a new heater, I just fitted one in my 90 cost around 100EU on Amazon, cheaper than a new batery. Best upgrade I have made and it uses very little bower.
Mud do a nice box to fit under the cubby box.All the Best Michael
Thanks Johannes,
Funny my wife complained that the Landy is leaking oil on the drive. I explained that it is a design feature to constantly change oil….
Merry Christmas
Hi Johannes,
Thats interesting you say to go back to the old double nut system and not the staked nut and spacer. I have been looking at loads of Youtube videos and was thinking the spacer system looked easier, but having never done either I am very interested in your thoughts. Is the hassle with the spacer to get the zero end float?
These are two guys I have been following do you have any other recommendations

All the Best Michael
Johannes,
Fingers crossed I may have solved it. I was thinking this started after I gave the engine bay a good clean a degrease, never had a so much as a peep out of the pump before. So I sprayed the regulator, and pipe connections with WD40, bleed the system 3 times. The noise has stopped. My thinking is the degreasing dried the injector return connections and let air in. Could be just luck tough, we will see. I will however go ahead and cut the hole in the floor, just incase.
All the Best Michael

Thanks Johannes, sorry for the English, still struggling to write, but can read OK ish. Really appreciate the feedback, feel less stressed now. I drove Landys for years in the army, but to my shame knew nothing of the workings, we left the REME to do all the dirty work. Good idea with the additive, will try that. I plan to go ahead with the access hole I have an idea to cut the hole with a router to control the depth of cut. I may post photos.
I wish there was a easy fix to change brake disks, with out removing the hubs, a terrible design.
Thanks again, all the Best Michael

Great Landy, by the way.

Thanks, I will try removing it and see if it makes an improvement. I can always put it back if its an issue. Takk.
Hi,
Sorry for the English, This company in UK looks OK, I have no connections with them. https://landroverdefenderengines.com/supply-fit/
The down side is you will pay more if you dont have a motor to trade in for the reconditioned motor. It may be worth the postage to send your knackered motor.
Why not give them a call +44 (0)1948 805003Cheers Michael (New member near Kramfoss.
