Recently my Terrano 2, 2.7 diesel has started 'hunting' at idle, the other thing that is noticable is a very slight hesitation pulling away at low speeds.
Any clues what the problem may be?

Pump needs to be repaired,it will be the top cover faulty.

They have a sliding potentiometer inside that wears.

Thank you for your reply, I am not questioning your diagnosis at all, but have you had the same problem?

When you say the top cover, what does it entail?

I have repaired many of these for this problem,yes it may be something else but generally that problem requires pump removal and overhaul including replacement of top control cover.
