Seriously though,
Not trying to **** in JC's pocket but have you garnered his take on the situation?
I think you are going to need a "second opinion" on whats happening, especially if you are going to push the issue.....
BTW, glad to see you didn't give up on the old girl, she will reward you in the end!
Yeah poor bloke. Jesus Christ everytime I had a prob he would be the first to help out!!! Wish I had someone like him self here in my parts, prob get sick of me coming to see him lol. I'm glad to I didn't get rid of it I reckon I would have regreted it big time.Quote:

Hey Joker!
I've got a the gist that you're having problems you've had with your diesel Disco from what I have read (new member here btw!). Sorry to hear there's trouble in paradise mate! :(
You'll have to excuse my ignorance somewhat, but I saw in another thread that there were some issues (un-named) which have been giving their fair share of grief. What's actually happening? If you can describe the symptoms and changes made and their effects, it might shed some clearer light on things to help you or to try. I used to be a mechanic and have a reasonable level of experience with diesels, but I have a few mates who are die-hard diesel fanatics who I can always ask if it's beyond my knowledge. :)

tried adjusting the idle and that does nothing. it just seems like she is underload when pressing the accelerator pedal. i can tell when she runs fine cause the accelerator pedal is nice and soft and not hard. so its really got me going as you can see via other posts. heres hoping yopu can come up with something.
cheers simon
LoL maybe next time mike when something else goes wrong. MMMmmmmm the slab sounded good but the EErrrrr MMMmmmmm fj45 AAhhhhhhhh you know toyota's....LoLQuote:
