Series 3 Tub Removal
« on: November 09, 2008, 13:41:53 »
Hi

I have just started to strip down my series 3 so that I can have a good look at the chassis. Can anyone tell me, will I need to remove the diesel tank to get the tub off.

Also and this is a big ask, would anyone with a diesel series be able to take a picture of the diesel pump / injector as it looks like mine has been bodged at some time and I am not sure what it should look like where the throttle cable and engine stop cable attach.

Many Thanks

Steve

Thanks Guys for the response

I seems that there are 2 bolts that go through a bracket on the chasssis and come out behind the fuel tank.
