Just having a further think on this.... At what age did the autoboxes on the disco go electronic? Was it at the same time as the injector pump? I don't really want any more electronics that I really need...

Current best contender is this one which we're off to look at on Saturday if it's not sold before then:

That one should be old enough to be on a mechanical pump too.

Hi
If it helps i think this may be the better one - I think mech pump might be hard to find & you cant test it until its fitted
good luck

We went to have a look and a test drive of this on Sunday. It's a very tidy motor but only has a few weeks test (although he did say he would put it in for one and was confident it would pass) but it looked to me to have a crank rear oil seal leak which put me off. He has since claimed that it was just residual oil being washed off by the rain from a previous rocker cover oil leak but I'm not convinced. He could be right as it was pissing it down at the time so I didn't spend much time underneath but it did look very much to me like it was coming out of the wading plug hole on the torque converter housing.
So it's back to looking again then...
if you are going to take engine/box out the sealis easy to change when everything on the floor why not make a low offer
