    Cool 2000 TD5 d2 auto has died ressurection suggestions would be helpful

    on the way out Saturday the td5 refused duty at the corner of our street Just nstarted missing then died. towed it home ,and walked away in disgust, how can so many problems keep dogging you....It started a few weeks ago noisy pump, would not start, another fuel pump was put in it was also noisy and vehicle would not fire up. Washed out red plug (oil in loom) used contact cleaner, Airated fuel was suggested ,Injector washers and seals were replaced , found a couple of broken exhaust studs (replaced them) plus air flow meter .... fired up just fine few days later was running on three cylinders took rocker cover off to check found nothing that covered the problem replaced cover fired up ran very smoothly for a week then started breaking down around 2900rpm On Sat fired up first touch of the key but the delight only lasted 80meters....So far have found fuel pump does not run, can not detect power to pump.. fuses etc seem to be in order
    Thanks in anticipation....Peter thexprinter

    Have a look at the fuel pump relay could be either a dirty connection or the relay is cactus.
    On a Defender there are other relays nearby that you can just put in and see if it runs Ok.
    Hope this helps

    Are you confident with understanding the relay wiring?
    While you have the realy out check that there is a supply of power to the relay.
    You could conect the switch side of the relay plugs with a jump wire and see if the pump runs.
    This will tell you if it's a relay signal or pump/wire problem.
    Don't do this if your not sure what wires do what!

    Yes there is main power to relay iformation I have suggests relay 1 is the one and pole 87 = supply to pump with 85 being signal from ECU.... if this is correct I will try a jump wire in the morning ....many thanks

    You will need to bridge terminals 30 and 87 to manually run the pump. The ECU provides only an earth path for the relay coil from an ignition supply via 85 and 86. Normally 86 is the earth-via-ECU connection.

    So is it all good now?
    I havn't had a faulty fuel pump yet, just about everything else
    From what I've read you notice a lack of power and the motor lacks power in the higher rev range.
    That or they just stop altogether.

    for several weeks would have mild vibration 90-100kph seemed a little sluggish but has done 313,000, and as we were experiencing the vibrations was not really pushing for Power,,,have posted what we have done, but was surprised when pump died... is beautiful to drive now...Peter thexprinter
