Hi All I have a Landrover 110 with a 2.8 foutrak engine in (plastic cam belt cover) I had a problem the other day & the metal heater tube made contact with #4 glow plug & has arc'd out? the beast won't start now & I have had most thing's to bits & I have ordered more glow plugs off ebay just in case (I also need to order a relay as a belts & braces approach) but for the life of me I cant seem to get any fuel through to #1 injector or any of the others?
I have fuel through to the input side of the pump & through to the return I also have had fuel out of the cover plate at the bottom & from the bolt which you remove to set the timing with the dial gauge! but I cant get the jeffin thing started!!
I have tried the method for timing but there are 2 marks on the bottom pulley & I have tried both & turning the pulley in both directions arghhhhh!
Help!!!!!! please
Any suggestions gratefully accepted!
Strange you have fuel going t
Strange you have fuel going through the pump but not exiting through the injectors.
Have you had problems with the injector pump before
If it turns out the pump has a fault let me know as I have a pump in perfect working order sitting in the garage.
Do you have a manual....this would help you set the timing properly.
Injection Pump
Hi thanks for the reply! what I have done recently is to fit an intercooler, after I fitted this I played around with the full load screw (completed in afternoon but I did not re-start to test fuel supply)which enabled the beast to perform a lot better I then tried it the next day after fitting the metal heater pipe & no joy!
I have read somewhere about the full load screw that if I take it too far then it has an effect on the fuel supply for cold starting? any info gratefully accepted.
If you can give me a qoute for the pump it will be seriously thought about & I have the pdf manual for the fourtrak which I downloaded for free off the warfs site which is another great site! but I will try the glow plugs & new relay & then if that fails I will whip the covers & pump off & start from scratch!!!!!!!!!!

fuel not coming out of pump to injectors
On the back of the pump there is a valve that cuts the fuel of to the injectors when u turn the engine off if this got damaged when u arced
the metal heater tube with the glow plug this could be the problem.
!hope this help,s u!
shut off solenoid
Hi thanks for the reply, I have taken the plunger out of the shut off valve as I thought that could have been the root cause but nope it still wont bleed.
