    HELP

    Hi Guys

    I bought a military 110 from graysonline in SA and have arranged for it to be transported to WA by Patrick Auto which are based in Port Adelaide, they pick it up Ok but when trying to load it at the depot today found it started but didn't enough power to drive it up the ramp, I cant get anymore info and have only spoken to the office girl who seems very helpful but has little mechanical knowledge, apparently it starts and ticks over.

    Can anyone recommend a mobile mechanic to have a look for me as I cannot get it transported unless it can be driven onto the loader.

    I would appreciate any help.

    Thanks

    Can they get it into low range? It was common for the car carriers to stick 300tdi Discos into low range due to the lack of power climbing the ramps.

    Could possibly be either a disconnected accelerator cable/linkage or a blocked fuel filter or the filter is loose and sucking air

    hope that is of help

    Im not what it could be, maybe as simple as a cable or blocked filter, if its been sitting a while it may have picked some sediment from the tank, I like the low range ideal from Scouse but I would prefer to drive it the other end from the depot. I will try Peter as well.

    Thanks
