I am still having problems with the old chestnut of 'oily injector loom' on my Defender TD5 1999.
I had all the symptoms.....Engine jerking around and stuttering ,and eventually stalling with engine management light coming on.
I bough a new injector loom (Britpart), and sprayed carb. cleaner all over the both sides of the red plug and ECU. I then have been blowing the plug with an air line. I have also sprayed carb. cleaner down the plug that connects the injector loom by the rocker cover.
It all has made a difference, but sporadically, the Landy continues to jerk and stutter.
I wondered if a big dollop of silicone grease on the red plug connectors would stop any oil from entering??
Any suggestions would be appreciated, as everythime I take the Landy out, I don't know If I will get back home!!
Thanks
