All sorted,eight,s diagnosis was spot-on,cleaned up plug and resistor unit,she runs lovely again,thanks.

Thanks Eight,that sounds very promising,ill check first thing and report back,thanks for your time,chris.

Hi,im having a few probs with my range rover,its a 3500 v8 efi,1985,its been stood a while but today i started to recomission it. its was running rough and lumpy so i changed the plugs and leads,no difference.a few hours later i have narrowed the fault down to the injectors. the car runs only...

hey fella,s £1700 would buy a mint classic 3900 v8 with lpg,go for it mate(check the car over properly),good luck!

Hi Mate,try a new fuel filter,its under the car at the back on the right chassis leg(near fuel filler).if its not been changed for a long time they can block restricting flow. Turning the ignition on and off flicks the fuel pump on and off which can temporarilly ease the blockage,seen a few...

Hi,no 1 on the dizzi should be at 5 oclock(stood in front of engine)remember its two turns of the crank to one of the cam for timing,meaning if you turn the engine another turn of the crank,thats half a turn of the cam and so half a turn of the dizzi,which will explain why you think you are 180...

Hi Mate,ill try to help out,just had a similar problem on my rr efi,probally best to read the post first,here is the link... http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f10/range-rover-classic-efi-wont-start-72406.html#post713532 just a quick thought,have you checked the large rubber pipe that connects the...

Hi Fella,s,got it running,mostly thanks to the tips in the other thread,i think my problem was caused by dirty connections on the ignition amplifier,i have cleaned up ALL underbonnet earths aswell,and while the dizzi was out i set up the bob weights properly(seized!)and cleaned up all the ht...

if using vista,use daemon tools lite,not alcohol 120,daemon is available across the net for free,alcohol will damage vista,hope this helps,also,are there any rave cd,s that cover the rr 3500 v8 efi,mine only seems to cover the 3900cc??...

hi,thanks for prompt reply,its electronic ignition,i have had the dizzy in bits and had to "guesstimate" the airgap between the 8 sided " trigger" in the dizzy as it is adjustable,i set it to where i could see the bolt had been before,the spec on this gap would be gratefully received,if you have...

hi,got a 1985 3.5 efi,having some problems,started a while ago...here goes... removed fuel tank to replace rear crossmember,rebuilt after repair,took ages to start(cranking for a very long time),started eventually but ran rough,gave it a good run and added 3 gallons and seemed ok,left parked...

OK.Thanks for the tips,it is starting to move now but only just and not enough to engage low box,i will get some wd40 on it tomorrow,thanks again,i was worried that the transfer box may be ****** but im happier now and i will persevere and get it fixed,cheers,chris.

when i am in high range,i can engage the diff lock,to engage low do i push lever forwards(from diff lock position)or do i have to bring lever back to normal driving position(back and right,no diff lock)before it will go forwards,i have given the lever some force in all positions but i dont want...

At least every 6k,unless you do high mileage then perhaps a little more between changes.

Hi,is there a knack to changing into low box?,i have an 1986 vogue auto,from the normal driving position(bottom right,high range no diff lock)i can move the transfer box lever to the left to engage diff lock and the light comes on the dash to indicate this is working,however from here i cant...

tough question,on economy there is only one winner,depends on what your mileage will be,my mate has a diesel and loves it,and it goes very well indeed(better than my v8 efi classic),both are very refined,that said though,my mates diesel needed a new engine after only 3 months(knocking then went...

hi,235/70/16 the wheels are from a disco i think but im told they also fit the p38 range rover,will ihave any problems with the pcd,i cant find much info,also can i use my wheel bolts,these are the actual wheels on ebay SET OF 5 LAND ROVER TD5/P38/DISCOVERY WHEELS WITH TYRES on eBay, also...
