    My engine lights flashing again

    The pump in mine is the same WFX000190, i took the panel off under the rear seat, i gently tapped the locking collar with a cold chisel and it unscrewed. Does the WFX000190 have a wfl100160 or wfl000010 fuel filter, i have a funny feeling i've ordered the wrong one. The filter in mine as...

    My engine lights flashing again

    I'll get a new fuel filter and see if that works. What does FUELSYS 1 OL DRIVE mean i'm getting this flashing between cl, i've never had this before it usually goes between ol to cl. I'm not sure if it's now safe to drive without doing damage or making things worse.

    Got it sorted it was the fuel injector on cylinder 1, when i removed the fuel injectors i tested the two pins on each and they gave the same reading on each 14.7 ohms. I made a switched cable with two little audio conectors to plug into the injector powered from a 12v battery, i used a...

    Engine running rough with p0301 & p0313 codes

    Engine running rough with p0301 & p0313 codes

    I changed the coil packs over to see if the problem would move cylinders but i still get the same p0301 cylinder 1 missfire detected and p0313 missfire detected with low fuel fault codes. Do you think points towards the fuel injector on cylinder 1 or could there be something else.

    failed emmision test 0n 1.8 freelander

    This is my take on what closed loop means (i'm no mechanic) you have 2 lambda sensors the first is pre cat on my freelander it's on the manifold cat the second lambda/o2 sensor is post cat fitted after the second under floor cat. The lambda/o2 sensors monitor the emissions before and after...

    From looking at a pic of the i930, i'd say select yes or no with the up/down left/right keys, when your on yes it will probably highlighted then select ok.

    Miles per gallon

    What miles per gallon of petrol should you be roughly getting driving localy with a 1.8 petrol engine. After replacing the second 02 sensor my miles per gallon have increased but i have no idea what i should be averaging just running around town.
