fuel pump
Thanks for the suggestion - hammer and drift pin did the trick. The pump is out. To my surprise, there was quite a bit of 7 yr old gas still in the tank. So it looks like I need a new pump. My local parts guy said he could get one for about $650. Wow, they cost that much?!? Any suggestions of good parts suppliers for Land Rovers? BTW, I also did a compression check:
cyl. psi
1 200
2 240
3 200
4 175
5 215
6 220
7 210
8 185
To me it looks like a bit of valve ware, hopefully not a bad gasket. What do you think?

Slow progress getting the fuel pump replaced. Got the new pump. So it is spring loaded into the tank? I got the pump in but can't hold it down and turn the retaining ring to hold it in down at the same time. I can't seem to press down on the ring and turn it at the same time. It seems to take a lot of pressure to hold the pump down in the tank. Is that normal? Is there some special installation tool to compress and turn the retaining ring? I almost had it back together before the snow hit...
