Hi All,

I am looking for a complete standard OE Air Box for my 3.9 V8,
Need hoses and all clips,

Thanks
Ian

So one of these then, ESR3011 for VIN TA onwards, and not difficult to find, available at the usual parts suppliers new or second hand.
As for hoses & clips there’s on one that’s a short length of breather hose, that’s it no clips either.

Thanks discool for the part number,
there is a one on ebay, it has one clip missing though, this is why I put shout out on here.
My V8 has a cone filter and to be honest not keen on it drawing in the hot air from engine bay so going back to standard with a K&N flat filter

While I am here I have just got the V8 road legal.
I asked a few questions about the truck running rough, engine management light on.
It seemed to have settled down while sitting on the drive and starting it up regularly.
Just had it out tonight and the same problem has occurred when its warmed up.
I have changed the relays 2 yellow and 1 green from under cover drivers kick panel for known good ones, still running rough when warmed up.
Do these V8's have any components that can break down when hot, similar to motorcycle coils when used and warmed up they fail then when they are cold start up and run OK.

Cheers Ian

I have read some posts on this problems rough running when hot, I will try a few things and report back, its the same checks I did with my old V8

The EFI coolent temp sensor positioned behind the distributor is a prime suspect, the the the fuel temp sensor further back could be iffy maybe, but I don’t believe any will bring an engine manage lamp.
