    Discovery 1 MAF 14 CUX

    That MAF sensor wiring colour code above is for the 1994MY 3.9. The 1995MY (300series) introduced in June 94 in the UK, has different wiring colour codes. So I’m hoping the info you’re referring to is correct but I expect its similar, but it’s worth checking your on the correct page😊

    Discovery 1 MAF 14 CUX

    Correct, the CO adjusted is sealed, that because the EFI ECU looks after everything on the 3.9… so no need to touch. Although the early 3.5 RR was different, it had caps that could be prised off and they even had a part number. My 3.5 RR started having thick black smoke starting from cold, It...

    3,9 EFI front timing assembly

    The bracket shown is ETC5576 for mounting an alternator on a V8 carburettor engine. My 3.9 has a serpentine belt so in that area there is a power steering pump mounted with a small alloy bracket. https://www.paddockspares.com/etc5576-bracket-alternator.html

    Disco 1 Plastic spare wheel cover - help please

    Ok that will work, it looks like a D1 wheel which was part number NTC5193PM. As you say the existing spare wheel is alloy so why not replace the vinyl cover? I understand it protects the tyre from sun damage. I’m now on a third cover, original plus two replacements

Early disco had the same electrical system as the early RR so...
