LAND ROVER DISCOVERY 2 DEFENDER TD5 2.5 FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR REPAIR FIX KIT PART NUMBER: X8R0081
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A common fault on TD5 vehicles is a fuel leak from the fuel pressure regulator block. This is caused by a diaphragm and or seals within the block deteriorating. Our overhaul kit allows replacement of the failed seals curing the leak without having to replace the complete block at vast expense.
SYMPTOMS OF FAULT
Fuel leaking down from the fuel pressure block at the driver’s side rear of the engine. Often collecting on the bellhousing, starter motor or on your driveway. A strong smell of Diesel under the bonnet is also a common indication of failure. To further diagnose; fuel leaking from the hole in the fuel pressure regulator is a sure indication that the diaphragm within the unit has failed.
THE PROBLEM
THE DIAPHRAGM WITHIN THE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR AND / OR THE O-RINGS DETERIORATE WITHIN THE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR BLOCK CAUSING FUEL TO LEAK FROM THE FUEL PRESSURE BLOCK.
Within the fuel pressure block sits a fuel pressure regulator designed to keep the fuel pressure at a constant 4 bar pressure. Within the fuel pressure regulator is a small rubber diaphragm, this deteriorates and fails leading to fuel leaks from the fuel pressure block. Land Rover’s solution to this is to replace the complete block at £150+. However, the block rarely fails just the pressure regulator unit and on occasions the O-rings seals.
THE SOLUTION
REPLACE JUST THE COMPONENTS THAT FAIL WITHIN THE FUEL PRESSURE BLOCK WITH IMPROVED COMPONENTS DESIGNED TO LAST, A VAST SAVING OVER REPLACING THE COMPLETE BLOCK.
Save the cost of a complete fuel pressure block which rarely fails, replace just the components that fail. Our kit allows you to replace just the fuel pressure regulator and O-rings that fail. Our kit even includes O-rings that don’t come with a replacement fuel pressure regulator block from Land Rover. Our solution provides a cost effective alternative to a complete new block with improved materials designed to outlast the OEM parts. Our kit includes all needed to overhaul including gaskets for both early and late types of fuel pressure regulator block.
