(1/5) > >>

saintsboy:
i need some help with the discovery
while offroading in bordon today i got stuck in one of the holes
the car conked out and now wont start
i have checked the air intake and there was no water in there and the main air feed pipe was bone dry and there were no nasty noises from the engine so im hoping i caught it early enough so no major damage
the lads at bordon think i have/had a small hole in the intercooler and thats where the water has come in.
called the AA and he thinks the same ,he tried to remove the injectors but couldnt get them to move
need them out to see if its water logged in the bore's
does anybody have a way to remove them or can anybody help me to remove them
i can supply as many cuppa's as required while helping me but dont have any money to pay till the end of the month

MuddyMachine:
How do. saw you leaving, not good. Did you stall in the puddle, could you have sucked it up through the exhaust?

If it tools you need I could help, Happy to come round for moral support but I don't really know what I am doing in that area. sorry.

I was a good day though, really put the 90 to the test and was verry impressed

saintsboy:
i think the exhaust was out the water at the time mate becuase the top of the airfilter was dry thats where they think it was the intercooler
been told to find somone with a slide hammer , it comes with all the attachments i need apparently

Les Henson:
Diesel Jim on LR4x4 had the same problem as you. He used a slide hammer but had to modify it to remove the injector. It might be worth you contacting him to find out what he did.
