hi i am new here i have just purchased a discovery and i am wanting to get the engine preforming properly. don't get me wrong it starts and runs fine but lacks power.

the first thing i need to do to get it up and running is to replace the rear main seal as it is leaking.

the clock says about 215,000 but i do not know if it is the original motor and it is duel fuel.

while i have the motor out i was thinking sump gasket and welsh plugs as well as the rear main seal.

what would the members suggest is there any particular problems that i should address?

What year is the truck? As for the lack of power, a lot of that will be caused from a warn out cam/lifters and timing chain. Do you have a check engine light on, if so what are the fault code numbers?
