as some of you will know i have fitted a disco 200 tdi into my 90,at the mo with 205's fitted it struggles to top 70 & is reving to its limits at that,with 750's fitted it does just over 65 at a lower rev range but woint go any faster,
on start up it has a sharp diesel "crack" like a ford tranny DI engine & tonight i striped the front of the engine to check the timing & everything is bang on the mark,also changed the fuel intake banjo bolt for 1 with a slightly bigger internal size which made nearly no differance & also fitted a new lift pump,checked the boost & its doin 7 psi & havnt tampered with the fuel injection pump yet,
any suggestions before i remove the injection pump to get it seen over by a specialist

If it's revving to its' limits then it sounds like a gearing problem rather than anything wrong with the engine :?
What transfer box do you have fitted?
-
thats what i thought too .....
-
defender transfer boxes are slightly lower gearing than discos, Wanderer can tell you more on that one

What diffs are there in it?
Sorry about the stutter the machine went nuts on me :oops:
-
its 3.5d diffs thats fitted & i believe it to be a 1.41 tbox thats init but not worked it out to be sure,thing is if it was gearing it would accelerate quick then top out with the small wheels & it doesnt do that,
let the diesel guy have a drive today & he rekons the pump timing internally has moved so is slightly advanced but will get a price to moz to have a look over it
