300tdi crank sensor
Discussion
Doesn't it depend on which version of the 300tdi the OP has? In Discoveries, for instance, Electronic Diesel Control (EDC) came in for the 1996my for automatics, and these have fuel, air, and coolant temperature sensors, airflow, engine speed, boost pressure, road speed, "throttle" position, and brake pedal sensors, all feeding the EDC brain.
Which is why I'm looking for a pre-96my Discovery, and ideally a 200tdi - really mechanical!

It's still the same mechanical injector pump though...Which is why I'm looking for a pre-96my Discovery, and ideally a 200tdi - really mechanical!

I can't remember exactly what all the bit & bobs did but there's something in the back of my mind saying those bits were more for the EGR.

Afraid not. The first 300 tdi Discoveries had an electronically-controlled EGR valve, and the pump had a TPS mounted on it, but the EDC cars used a very different Bosch pump and one special injector, now, I have read, no longer fully supported by Bosch. I believe it also means that the immobiliser, cause of so much trouble in the last 20 years of Solihull's finest, cannot be defeated by a couple of bits of cable and four croc clips.I can't remember exactly what all the bit & bobs did but there's something in the back of my mind saying those bits were more for the EGR.

It would probably defeat the average car thief if the stop control was still a bit of bent wire somewhere under the dash. Certainly (briefly) defeated me often enough with my MF135.
