    TD5 bogging down and wouldn't rev over 3K are FPR hoses fitted correctly

    I have a customer who has been chasing an issue with his Disco2A TD5 where it was bogging down and running out of grunt I wouldn't rev over 3k. After lots of investigation he found the cause, the fuel press regulator hoses where connected incorrectly so the system was working in reverse. re fitting the hoses correctly cured his problem. I also appears to be a more common problem with DYI mechanics, his research found others did the same and had those problems.

    How does one managed to fit them incorrectly?

    Being a D2a I assume it's the 15p EU3 Td5 which has the extra FPR hose, such as:

    Out of the three, only one will stretch the distance to the front of the head and thread in (the other two don't thread as they're quick connect fittings), only one is a hose with a quick connect that will go down to the fuel line on the vehicle and the third is a barb that the fuel line from the vehicle comes up to and quick connects. I just don't see how someone has got them confused as they've helpfully made them all unique and not interchangeable...

    If you fit the fpr with the hoses removed it is possible yes to have them connected in reverse. Obviously not the external return on on the eu3 though....
