  • Land Rover Defender 110 - Experts 17 Aug 2025 (Forum)
    I have a guy working with me at the moment, he drives a Defender with (I believe) the 300tdi engine.  Yesterday, it sprung a fuel leak just as he arrived - diagnosed as a problem with fuel lift pump.  He got a replacement and set about fitting it today.   After a lot of arguing with an almost completely inaccessible bolt, he eventually got it swapped over and went to start it.
