    Try fuel pump relay could be sticking


    There are 2 relays located in
    the RH footwell area behind the ’A’ post trim panel.


    The fuel injection relays can be identified as follows:


    A. Fuel pump relay - Blue base

    B. Main relay - Black base



    The relay i think a 30amp relay 4 pin

    hope it helps in some way enjoy

The fuel pump must run constantly while the engine is running.There is a return for excess fuel back to the tank.

My 1998 Land Rover Discovery starts intermittantly. Sometimes it is OK, sometimes it chugs for awhile then quits and sometimes it simply won't start. Mechanics gave up because it always started for...

this sounds like a failing fuel pump, this would cause low fuel pressure and that would account for the chugging as u call it, if the fuel pump has over or near 100,000 miles it is very likely that it is the problem, the pump is located inside the gas tank, if u replace it also check the fuel pump connector for burned contacts and replace the fuel filter or the manufacturer won't honor the warranty.

My land rover discovery won't start or stay ruuning when it does start

Hello JB, usually cam or crankshaft sensors can cause this problem. My experience has been that when either of these sensors goes bad it just dies and nothing. My question to you is has the cars check engine light come on, and have you retrieved any codes. Please get back to me, GOOD LUCK.

98 landrover discovery will not start. It just spins

does it have fuel pressure? to find this out get a can of spray starter fluid from a auto parts store, spray it into the engine air intake, if the engine starts you most likely need to replace the fuel pump which is located in the fuel tank.

98 land rover discovery fuel pump replacement directions

This site has a lot of information regarding your Discovery including pricing, specs etc. I suspect you can find what you need here:
http://www.rangerovers.net/rrpartsv.htm#fuelreg

I was going to write that typical fuel pressure ranges somewhere between 15 & 25# and would have been 12# low.
Guess checking before pretending expertise is wise . . .
