Thread: td5 head shuffle

Just got my 130 back from workshop after head gasket dramas.Head was alrightbut radiator and water pump got replaced.This of course blew the cost out from $2400 to over $2700.Driving it home seemed a bit sluggish,also hard to start.Shop says injectors could be out of tune,they are picking it up next week and fixing it for no cost .They are dropping my rangie off when they pick up the defender,fuel pump died!I also made a new set of contacts for the solenoid.Removing and replacing starter motor on a td5 is one mongrel of a job.Now i have to do my d2,they seem to fail within a week or two of each other!

Got defender back again,was an injector washer that moved a bit.Seems fine now,just seems to rattle a bit more at idle,head has been skimmed.Maybe im just used to the rangie and the disco being a bit quieter.
