HEADLIGHTS FLICKERING
Since I replaced water pump( about a month ago) and put it all back together the tensioner pulley,headlights, engine are all rhythmically pulsing. I did not change the tensioner pulley, when water pump replaced. The battery and alternator check out. What do you think. I can see the tensioner pulley move up and down as this happens. It is all in perfect rhythm

Double check your belt routing. If you put wether or not you have a DI or DII it helps us help you.

You will pay more but you will get the correct belt.

I would start with the belt. Your belt tensioner may be bad as well but replace the belt first. If that doesnt do it then replace the tensioner and you should be good. but the belt is the cheaper of the two.
Depending on your funds it would be best to replace both at the same time. But if all you can afford is the belt then replace just the belt.

On a side note what you have is Lucas Electrical in your Disco I.
The Lights have three positions
1. OFF
2. DIM
3. FLICKER
Welcome to the Prince of Darkness (Lucas)
I just had to.,,,,,, Now it sounds like you ALT is on its way out the diodes are
going bad.
Who checked the ALT ? It is best to check it on the truck,,or
you have a ground wire that is loose.
I have a hand held checker that checks all of the charging system when on
the truck.
See if you can find someone that can do that if that is not what was done.
