Lucas Cav Dps Injection Pump Manual
Click to expand. Don't know what is available on the net, I have hard copies from CAV, but they are rare now. The manuals are interesting, and useful reference when doing minor repairs, but I wouldn't attempt to completely rebuild a pump myself. It isn't as easy as you think, and once you have rebuilt it, it needs to be tested, Which needs an expensive machine.
If your motor is very good it may be worth getting the pump rebuilt professionally. If not there shoud be sh pumps about, plenty of 19j have blown up! Click to expand. Maybe not as well off as some, I try and economise by running old vehicles I can repair myself, but this too has costs with it. Im afraid whatever way you odds it running a landy is going to be dear.
I to prefer too do things for myself, and I do, we rarely use labour on the farm or the house, except for a few contractors for foraging. Just finished working on the kitchen resto now! One area I do make an exception is IPs.
Mainly because I have seen so many knackered over the years by the well meaning intentions of owners, and I have seen it done properly, so I have an idea of what is needed. Simple external leaks and the like are sometimes repairable by a careful owner, if your pump is all worn out, try and source a decent sh one. Thanks, Dippypud' but the DPA pump is a lot different from the DPS. Furthermore, the Sherpa n/a pump does not have the gizmos on it for the turbo, so is not much use either. I don't want to go as far as looking for and trying Bosch pumps belonging to something else, so this option is not on the cards. In reply to 'Turboman' - how do I know if my pump is 'all worn out' if I don't have a manual to tell me what to look for and check? Also, by the same reasoning, how would I know what a 'decentish' one was like before going to all the trouble of fitting it and then finding out it wasn't as decent as it was supposed to be?!

After decades working with all manner of mechanical things, I would not class myself as just a 'well meaning owner'. I've chickened out on the idea of looking for a download of a manual as I recently got spyware on my computer searching Googled websites - never again! It seems I'm on a 'no hoper' with this one, but if anyone at any time comes up with anything I will be extremely pleased.
Thanks, Blackburn, I had just about given up but with your reply, there might still be hope. For now I can't access the link you sent on the Land Rover U.K. Forums as I'm not registered with them yet, (I'm on just about every other L/R forum there is!). To begin with, one thing where there is something not right about my pump is the throttle stop/tick over adjustment - see idle screw adjustment and throttle stop on your other link pic.
She ticks over at about the right speed BUT when the throttle is pressed there's a good 1/4 inch gap between the throttle stop adjustment screw and the throttle arm before the revs begin to rise - I have not 'messed' with these settings, (which is not to say the previous owner didn't), although comparing the settings with another pump I have reveals they are roughly similar, but this 'dead gap' cannot be right - surely? Whether it's relevant or not, she smokes quite badly on a low tick over but clears when the revs are lifted a little. This is a classic case of where a Manual would probably throw some light on all this.
Anyway, that's my first 'problem' hopefully clearly explained. P.s:- The throttle spindle seal is fine - no leaks from there or anywhere else on the pump.

I think that is probably normal. I will have a look at mine when its dried up a bit outside. Are there any lockwires or telltale paint on the adjustment screws? Im afraid a Manual would not help with this.
The one I have contains no diagnostic or fault finding info at all. It is purely a list of special tools and the procedures to completely rebuild a pump. In response to your earlier q.
The usual first signs of a pump on its way out are leaks. As Blackburn accurately says, this pump will usually start to leak from the governor housing first. So as your spindle is not leaking it may be a sign that the pump is actually in good health. This is the gist of my post on landrover net and reply Been busy changing my accelerator linkage as after fitting handthrottle had problems with too rapid acceleration, this turned out to be due to the longer arm I had fitted to accelerator shaft.made it very difficult to control when you hit a bump Anyway as part of the solution I fitted a swivel connector from my spare pump and noticed that the throttle settings where different on the pumps. Does anyone know what the two adjustments on the throttle plate are for pdf attached showing both pumps and some of info I believe to be correct. Reply:- The mystery adjusters on the throttle lever are the adjustment of the run down when you shut the throttle. I will added some more info here which might help.

This might also be of help diaphragm failure and repair Picture of lid shows max fuel adjuster on side if you have too much fuel at tickover might be worth having ago at adjusting this. Did you say yours was the turbo engine if so the turbo diapragm probably operates in a very similiar way to the Bosch VE pump have a look a this doc might be a case of rotating the diaphragm as in the bosch. Thanks for replies. Firstly, in answer to 'Turboman's' questions - no, there's no locking wire except on the maximum throttle stop (and a piece that used to be on the diaphragm cover - see below) and, yes, there's yellow paint on the screw heads but not enough to tell if they've ever been messed with. Although, visually comparing with a spare pump I have shows them to be in about the same positions. While we're here - do you know what the function of the small arm beneath the main throttle arm does?
It has a loose (quite heavy) tension spring on it which only comes into play just before the main throttle arm reaches the fully closed position. Adjustable by one of the yellow screws presumably, but how do I know what the optimum position of this arm should be? Secondly, in answer to 'Blackburn' - Some weeks ago I found diesel in the pipe from the diaphragm housing on the pump to the turbo which senses pressure when the turbo spins up. I removed the cover in situ and discovered a punctured diaphragm which I replaced with the one out of my spare pump.
No further bother. Incidentally, there's no facility for adjusting the diaphragm by rotating as depicted in your Bosch link, so this does not apply in this case. The principle of the diaphragm is the same but not the adjustment. Thanks for replies.

From memory the only other arm on the governor housing would be a shut off, which is not used as there is a solenoid.
Hope the diaphragm holds, often the fuel will be leaking into the rear chamber and wil split it again, fingers crossed! You are right, it is not adjustable by rotating. Earlier on you mentioned that I had said you were a well meaning owner.

I certainly wasn't dissing your mechanical ability, wasn't even referring to you, just commenting on the fact that I have seen many pumps and other landy stuff made worse by incompetent DIY. I didn't mean to suggest that you were in this group.
