Excellent thanks

Anyone know how many kg unladen my 1998 disco v8i xs is????

My v8 failed to start on petrol today ( it has a gas conversion which it runs fine on) i noticed the fuel pump wasn't priming when ignition switch was turned. Found the fuel pump fuse was blown. Replaced it and it blew again. Even blows with the fuel pump plug disconnected on top of the tank...

My 98 Disco v8 has started to make a ticking noise but only when warm. I can't tell if it's coming from the engine or the exhaust / cat area. It increases / decreases with revs but is only really noticeable at tickover. Engine runs fine its just a noise and only when fully warmed up. Oil...

Hi no not as far as i know. Plugs are new i have had it 'pluged in' and diagnostic checked. The only problem found was a lambda sensor down on one bank ( this was the same sensor that had been tapped into for the lpg) so i was hopefull that that was the problem. No such luck new sensor has made...

i have thought down the lines of a leak myself but it does about the same on petrol as lpg!!! had it tuned and checked on a co meter and its not running super rich but would only just pass mot

Does anyone have any infomation on the BRC single point lpg systems. I have one fitted to my disco v8i and want to make sure its set up right. Only getting 8 MPG but runs and drives fine?. Any Info would be a help the brc website is usless.

Has any one else had experience of exhaust manifolds blowing and making a clatter ing / taping noise like pinging. it happens only when the enigine is under load. If i adust the timing the noise gets better and or worse dependant on if i retard / advance the engine... Any input would be...

had another look and i think the exhaust manifold gasket is blowing slightly on the near side bank which would cause the noise i'm sure but why would the noise be reduced if i retard the timing??

thanks for the reply again!! When i changed plugs they were a nice nutty brown. no smoke at all ever. Were is the c0 adjust an where do i check the volts. Thanks again Andy

maybe some more info would help the overall diagnosis. I'm also only geting about 7 mpg round town and 9 on a run. I don't think it is pulling very well. We'll not like a V8 Engine runs sweet at idle and does missfire at all. Runs same on petrol or gas. Noise only occurs when under load, if...

Hi I've just fitted the new Vac Advance. The old one was definatly Knacked. However on revinng the enigne up quickly i still get the pinging type of noise as before. This time with my head under the bonnet it only seems to be coming from the nearside bank oil filler area ( i think it may have...

Just had a good suck but the brecker plate did not move. the breaker plate was not seized as i could move it by hand but judging by how muck spring tention was on the plate i doubt i'd be able to suck enough to move anyway. When sucking i also looked at the link rod from the diaphram to the...

Thanks. I'll have another look at the plate with the cover removed. Andy

just checked the vac advance by sucking on the pipe. No movement of the rotor arm so its u/s.

thanks for the advise i'll get a new one cheers

Just set my timing on my diso 3.9 v8 to 6 deg btdc. The engine is pinging and i have to retard it alot to get it to stop but then it 's lot lots of power. Has an lpg convertion but does the same on petrol and gas. Ive been told it could be the vacuum advance thats stuffed but surely if this...

Also can somone confirm or correct me on the timing marks. Mine seems to have a straight edge jutting out from the timing case and a large groove in the crank pully damper. No sign of any other decree marks or am i lucking in the wrong place?? If i look at the marks mentioned with the strobe...

Just to confirm i'm not going mad!! when looking down at the crank pulley from the front of the car with a strobe light without any advance/retard adjustment should the timing mark appear to the left or the right of the TDC mark?? i believe it should be to the left about 5 dec making it 5 dec...
