Thanks for the quick reply. My V8i is now working like a dream. One morning it stalled only once, then the next day and it ran as good as new. I think i might have water/condensation somewhere. It now idles between 500-1000, drops a little when on gas, but otherwise it seems ok. Thanks for...

Thanks for that Fett, I have dropped Kev an email, although i'm not sure that the base idle is wrong, because surely it would stall all day long and not just in the mornings??? Thanks again for the help Tony

Fett, Whats the stepper? The idle after warm up is around 500rpm. Drove the bugger from work today (1pm) and it run a good as all ways. Went to Land rover mechanic. Told him the full story, he had alook, said it sounded beautiful. He suggested it might be the idle control connect to the...

My mechanic and I had a good look round the engine bay and found nothing (Apart from what looked like steam/smoke from the dipstick!!???!!) It work brillantly all night when I took it for a spin. Drove it this morning and it STALLED several times!!!! I'm beginining to think that some for of...

I would love to say that I have checked if the hoses are ok, but I dont reallu know what i'm looking for....I think I might have to take the hit and take it to a garage....bugger......more money......bugger

Well left it overnight and it started first time. Once engine up to temp it started stalling (What a F^&%King nightmare trip home) Clean HT and dizzy. Had a test run and everything seems ok, bigger test run tonight (quieter roads), did seem that there was a air noise coming up from above the...

Thanks Fett I will give it a good drying in the morning and see what happens... I will drop a post to let you know what happens..and have a look at my CV joints Thanks again Tony

Thanks for this.... What is the dizzy?. My disco has been left at work today (Weather nice and Hot), so I think any water in the engine bay should hopefully dried out? if thats what you mean?? The other noise sound like its coming from underneath and behind me and is almost like a slow loud...

Thanks for all the help. Took it to another garage and it flew through the MOT....How very strange.. Thanks again

Sorry its a Disco 3.9

Its a 1996 P reg V8i...afraid I'm abit lost on the other things you asked Thanks It also make a noise like a brake cable being pulled when I slow down or accellerate (Different problem) which I this might be something to with the transmission or brushes?? Any ideas

Help, My V8i this mornig has decided to stall when I stop. It starts straight away when asked. I gave it a good pressure wash the day before...could this have somehow effected the engine??? Will it dry out??? Many thanks Tony

Thanks paul...I hope my garage is friendly

Thanks I guess I will have to check the leads....but seems to run fine on petrol

Help, My P Discovery 1 V8i has failed the emissions test on the LPG. The limit is 1200ppm and mine was a whopping 4191ppm. Could this be that the LPG managemant system is dumping to much gas into the engine?? Any help would be gratefull and its all still under warranty.... Thanks

Just had my beloved 1996 V8i converted to LPG. The engine needs to get to 40 degrees before it will change over to LPG, and on mind it seems to take an age (From cold), which means I'm wasting money on petrol!!!! How long should it take to get to 40 degrees, is there anyway of speeding the...

Thanks guys....of to the garage I go.........

What seals and bearings are fooked if water comes out??

I appear to have green liquid (coolant) very very very slowlt dripping from my engine. It appears to come from the part that joins the water pump to the engine block??? I am losing coolant very very slowly according to the tank. Could this be a water pump failure??? What the damage down the...

That sounds about right....I will try some of my mates 'proper' leads and see how that goes...thanks for the advice
