Diff ratios

<< < (4/6) > >>

Jimbo:
OK, in no specific order (cos I can't remember what order you nice chaps posted the responses in !).

Chris - I'll give it a go, but will have to wait until I can get down my mates place, as I can't see SWMBO turning over the engine or lying on the floor counting the number of times a flange rotates  :wink:

Wheel balance - really  :shock: , can't see it myself. But I do need to get the tracking done, so will get the balancing done at the same time.

Lift pump - Td5 so no separate pumps, and I used my 'spare' pump on the Disco a few months back......and on the Defender its a tank-out job to do the pump  :evil: . If it is the pump - diags should show low fuel pressure I think, the guy who will be doing my tracking has the diags (Rovacom), perhaps I'll get him to come out for a run - assuming that you can access the diags in a real-time situation (ie, whilst driving along ?)

stageonesimmo:
Good point re the lift pump - must remember to read things more closely in future, D'oh.........

Jimbo:
Dave Ashcroft reckons that I should stick with the standard t-box (1.410) rather than swapping to a Disco ratio (1.222) as with my 265/75 MT's it might gear it too high !

He might be right, but then again i did it on my old TD5 110 and it worked a treat, but then i did chip and intercooler it too :D

A chip or re-map is on the cards, but not until it's running as a standard Td5 should !

Out of interest, what intercooler did you fit ? - I thought the Td5 one was the biggest that would go in there !
