hrh_dave:
Just went to town about 6miles away... ice on the road so was going very slowly.. but then when I tried to go above 25/30  it wouldnt.... so got some fuel in-case of being a bit low... and checked everything else levels wise.... was a bit better on the way back but still nothing above 30mph.... anyone any thoughts... it is about -10 here at the moment and trying to snow...   I have just changed the fuel filter thinking it might have been blocked etc but no change....

Cheers

Dave

Bobtail:
Sounds more like waxing

When the weather like it is now is colder than normal

The diesel starts to get thick and thats probably your problem

Hope this helps

lurch_917:
also could be the wrong oil  in your gearbox some people dont read the book and put ep80/90 in when it should be atf dexron ( automatic fluid ) this could be causing your problem as on a good day its too thick but in this cold weather it would be like grease to start and as your not doing speed its not warming and thinning

hrh_dave:
It is a manual.... just going swop the lift pumps over between the 110 and disco... as its off the road at the moment.... right back to the elusive spanner hunt...

bogie:
Put a gallon of petrol in,it will thin the diesel down a little and clean ur injecters.
