Good information guys. My truck has never stalled, it simply acts like a clamp around the fuel line, no throttle. After sitting a while, all is well. One of the craziest things my Disco had done. Over three years it has done it three times. Unless it is stupid expensive, I will change the...
Good Afternoon! I have a 1998 D1 with 162000 miles. I have had it for about three years and have been working on making it more dependable. I have one issue that has reared its ugly head on three occasions. While driving down the road, usually to work, I end up with a dead pedal where...
Monday evening I was starting to check my inoperative left rear window when I turned on the ignition switch and the fuel pump sounded like my dish washer draining. The tank is almost full so I don't think it was sucking air. Could a return line be bubbling or something like that or is the pump...
I found (locally) a TRW/Lucas master cylinder for a good price and bought it. It stopped the vehicle well but would leak down. So I requested and received a warranty replacement for the first cylinder and installed it. When being bench bled it seemed weak on the rear outlet but I put it on...
Best,
Thanks for the quick reply! From what I can see, it looks like I will have to remove the fans to get to the plugs. Can I manually switch them from a sender? If the fans are switched on the ground side, it seems likely to be able to cut them on at a sender. Perhaps it is a bad sensor...
Good Morning!
Friday afternoon I discovered the electric cooling fans were not working on my 98 Disco. I have power to them as proved by my test light. So I checked in my workshop manual and could not find a diagram showing how it is wired. Does it switch on the positive or negative? Is...
The original to my ownership master cylinder is a TRW/Lucas, and I have just replaced it with another TRW/Lucas. I am pretty sure the M/C is bypassing now because there is no fluid loss anywhere but the pedal slowly goes down. I have ordered a replacement. I believe the original problem...
Thanks for the replies. PDX, it is definitely the main hydraulic brake system. Fish, it pulls up evenly like all brakes are being applied. The M/C I replaced was a Lucas, I have since replaced it with a new TRW/Lucas. It seems to work ok except it seems to have an internal bypass!! Step on...
Hi folks, this is my first posting here. I have a 1998 D1 and two series trucks. I have had series trucks since 1977 and know them pretty well, but I am still trying to figure out the D1. I have had a weird problem twice now. Without any warning the brakes will slowly apply themselves to the...
