Ive been reading about pump swaps recently. Does this apply to you? "IF the TD27T i stripped the pump off to replace the ETI pump in my truck is anything to go by.... did you have the timing mark on the injector pump gear between the two marks on the drive gear? also i noted when I dismantled...

Pretty much where im up to at the monent with work on the truck. So more to come when time allows. I was greeted yesterday by this when returning to my car. I think it was actually that hot the screen scracked where there was a small stone chip. Or someone took offence to the Maverick and broke...

So far Ive covered about 100 miles on veg and it hasnt missed a beat. Keeping on eye on the filter for anything dragged through. What this little guy was doing I dont know lol. What I cant over is how well she fires up. The soon as that stater engages its off and running. I just assumed the...

Sheeared a couple of bolts on the bumper. They were stuck fast so using steves idea from the recent thread I welded on some nuts and was able to get the threaded part out.

Get them side steps off . I might be small but even I can climb in unaided. :lol

Checked tracks on the back of the pod. All ok as far as I could determine. Again cleaned the connectors then cleaned the earths which were B10 and B18 on the earth distribution diagrams. All back together and shes alive. Reads the level but swings alot when going round roundabout. So right down...

Got the dash apart to get at the gauges.

Started disconnecting the wiring for the sender along its route and checking continuity. Then cleaned each connector before re attaching. Ran a wire from rear to dash to allow me to check the length of the harness.

Bumper off so I can access the wiring for the sender and have a look at body mounts. You can see a but off rust but its purely surface. You would never guess its 22 years old. Bumper off its looking mean!

The new pipes seem to have cured the stutter when coming off the throttle. It has a slight hesitation every now and then when creeping about feathering the pedal. So my plan is to replace the rubber hose that goes from steel pipe on bulk head to ip, replace bolts on the tank so i can get it nice...

Heres the new pipes under the drivers footwell. Which is still solid.

The fuel pipes had been previously replaced from the tank to under the drivers seat. But as Im running veg I thought it best to run new pipes front to back. Avoiding any built up stuff already in the original lines an maybe helping the stutter. So removed everything front too back. Ran rubber...

Whipped the sender out to check resistances. Found some crap floating about and on the pick up. So a good clean to make sure nothing is blocking the pipes.

Figured id start with the fuel gauge and stutter. The tank area is so clean. No rust or paint peeling off the tank. Bolts out nice and easy. One of the doesnt quite take to the tank properly so they are all being replace when I get a chance to pick some up.

She is solid. A world of difference from the Terrano that no seems no matter how much I was to repair Id always be chasing some rot about. Runs well but with a judder/miss fire. Seems to occur when letting off but picks straight back up when you press the pedal. Fuel gauge all over the place...

Rather than start a new thread I thought I would just carry on here. Picked this up from Mav96 at Ricks place two weeks ago. But I have only been driving it about since Sunday.

I had a read of a few posts last night. Came across one by Rick explaining the needle is held on magnetically so if it has ended up pointing downwarda then the signal to the gauge has been lost. Either through sender or wiring. After cleaning all the contacts with a blast of air and some...

Good call on the low level light. Makes perfect sense. Will check the associated earths next and see if they make any difference.

Im trying to sort the fuel gauge on my new Mav. Here is where I have got to. So far I have tested the unit inside the tank. Checked as per manual. Measured differing resistance with the float in the full/ empty positions. Resistance readings were near on what the manual stated. Traced the...

The website states they stay in place. But allow the window to still operate behind it.
