BB has developed a problem with "hunting" when slowing down.

Anyone know the cause and cure  :huh:

Ed Wanderer had a problem on his 200 a couple of years back (it was hunting whilst ticking over) his turned out to be a broken spring in the fuel injection pump IIRC..  :(

 could also be a fuel blockage  ive had this problem before not on a landie though it was a f.u.b.a.r.d filter worth a check ( wilst running above tick over fueling ok as its being sucked through by both pumps as you take your foot of the gas it tells the injector pump not to suck as hard ( wish my missis would listen the same he he )

Thanks for the replies.

All fuel line filters have recently been changed, so will have to get a pump manual and see what's, what.

Anyone got a pdf format copy?

Had this when cold when switched over to SVO.

Pipe from lift pump to fuel filter had split inside the union, very little seepage but its not done it since that was done.
