200tdi discovery engine in to defender 200tdi advise

(1/2) > >>

yolandie:
i brought my defender as a non runner the bloke who i brought it off said he went through some water and came out the other side and it wouldent start i dont think water got in to the intake as it had a snorkle which was well fitted it turns over and there is deisel up to the injecters but wont start the bloke i brought it of asked one of the recovery team to see if he know what was rong and he recond it was piston rings but i thought it will start although piston rings had gone so if any one could help or have any idea what is rong that would be great

but now i have brought a 1993 200tdi disco with a recon engine 10000 miles ago very good engine
what is involved in fitting this in to my defender what do i need to change and need to keep of the other engine

cheers dale

Rasbo:
The turbo is mounted in a different position so in order to avoid modding the exhaust use the manifolds from the defender engine.  Other than that its a strait swap I believe.

Did the engine seize?  Possibly a bent con rod but my neighbor had this problem and still started.  would say check the stop solenoid but as you say you've got fuel.  If there's fuel there can only really be 3 problem and that's lack of compression or no air or no exhaust. have a look in the rocker cover make sure its not the 2 latter.
