Check your injectors are not loose!
The clamp bolt can undo, which results in a very Nasty knocking. You will see, or feel your injectors bouncing. 80" 80" 86" 88" 90" Wanted, Forward Control Anything considered. |

As above, Prezzy on here just had the same thing a couple of days ago on his svx. He popped it into the Landrover centre who got them all rebolted in the day Ray

Surely though they shouldn't come loose anyway! No doubt another Defender foible though.

Plus, I very much doubt it'll come to a new engine. $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R

Have a look under here:
If they be like that fasten em up a bit, but don't go nuts or you'll break the torque to yeild bolt. Couple of threads on the forum already... Other than that, good luck finding it! Solved the bowel problem, working on the consonants... |

IF it was the 'injector problem' also take some time to:
Drain engine oil (use motorflush before) Remove oil sump and clean inside Remove and clean the oil pump strainer. Install everything back. Refill with (new) engine oil. Maybe you could make some pictures how the oil pump strainer looked like before the cleaning (I forgot to do that myself  ).
Good luck! PS Don't forget to also change the cupper rings under the injectors, the 'original' LR are really expensive, but sometimes you can find them much cheaper on the WWW. |

Excellent news, at least you don't need a new engine now.

Hello chaps, Excellent thread, my Puma has the same as in the video. The knocking is horribly loud, I thought it was the end of the engine... Anything else I should have in mind when doing this? Thanks in advance for the help |
