Just checked & it's not on there.

You could try calling Ashcroft Transmissions & ask them ?

Dunno. Need to check

All I can say is JFDI and report back. We all now know it’s not about fuel economy. Nuff said & I say again JFDI.

Personally I would like to have LPG easily available as one of my P38's came with it installed. There's far few places these day where it's available, plus whoever originally installed mine either never got the certification or it got lost...

This is getting fun. Maybe the op will give up & try elsewhere, or actually do it & present the results ???? Maybe the diffs will fit or not . . . .who knows ? Will the engine last longer . . . .who knows ? Will many of us buy an L322 that...

It can’t roll that much. When out of sync Nanocom or testbook puts GEMS into learning mode. It then learns next code from BECM. If it rolls it can only go from 1 to 65534. FFFF or 65535 tells GEMS to go into ignore mode. Either the F-out...

If we’re not careful this could end up like the “please ignore” thread in the freelander section

Btw don’t buy a CR-Max on Amazon. Lots of fakes. I’m in Langley near Heathrow. Not CIA.

I have the Icarsoft CR-Max which apparently uses the same SW as the V3 Land Rover Version, but covers all most cars. Never tried it on an L322 though cos I aint got one. Works well on my Merc C180 & both Freelanders. For my P38's it shows...

BTW, just for a laugh, I googled the amount of energy required. Surely burning that amy energy in petrol is gonna put the same strain or wear on the engine regardless of rpm. . . . . .but I'm not the right scientist :cool:

Remember the future is not written yet . . . . it's what you make it !!

You're always gonna get comment (some good, some bad & some scarcastic) on this forum, but often good info based on extensive knowledge & experience. If we assume the engine uses more fuel when it working harder (regardless of revs) & producing...

Also at 70mph, surely lowering the revs from 1300 to 1100 is not gonna save much petrol ? Rememer you need a certain amount of energy or fuel to keep a brick shaped car rolling !!

Does this help ? https://www.fullfatrr.com/forum/post676116.html

When you say "it drops to entry height", do you mean it stays up overnight, and then drops to Access or Standard when you start the car ? If so it's not a valve block issue.

Go to main forum list, and start there. The LZIR thread has a link to the map.

At that price you don't know if the diffs are for sale because they are old & noisy, or how they have been treated.

I use a set of four 3 ton stands like these, although for most jobs two of the car wheels are on the ground with blocks holding them from moving. Quite stable with either the FL1 or my P38 on them. Wouldn't touch or trust those ratchet...

Depends on the Cam profile, but yes does need checking & doing. It's whether the heel of the cam is same or lower than the standard that matters. All the guides I have seen requires the tappets to be empty of oil & the gap about 40 thou with...

According to his facebook page, he has closed down RPI now, but might respond on FB.

This worth watching. FOUT board demo.

BBS probably will not divulge the relearn OBD commands either, as it would hurt sales of their Sync tool !! Might be worth asking someone like Marty ? The actual comms uses K-Line ISO-9141 protocols (most likely same commands for any GEMS...

Last time I did an FL1 prop & VCU, we used 4 axle stands. Much easier then to access everything & easy to turn the wheels or prop.

Looking at other GEMS applications, the mobilisation procedure is the same regardless of BECM or other security system. Here's how it works in a Morgan: (see attached pdf.) So to use the GEMS ECU in another vehicle without security, your...

You would need to find what data the Nanocom sends to GEMS for learn mode, plus the data format the BECM sends during starting. The GEMS will be some kind of LR specific command code via the OBD protocol. I suspect the BECM enable signal uses...

Yes powered up & then the normal BECM start action. Doesn't matter if the engine actually runs, just for GEMS to learn the code. I read somewhere that Morgan V8 GEMS was programmed with the same code so it didn't require a BCM of any sort. . ...

Never tried it, but in theory you could do it with a Nanocom (although Nanocom might not allow FFFF). 1. In BECM menus write FFFF into the Immobilisation code. 2. In GEMS Utility menu put GEMS into Learn Mode. 3. Turn ignition off-on to trigger...

I have an old (6-7 years) battery 110AH, 750 EN in my garage I use as a temporary 12V supply for testing EAS Valve Bocks, Stereos, etc. It gets charged about once per month usually the day before I need it. Right now it's measuring 12.2V or...

Do the pressure check with the engine up to normal temp & switched off. Make sure you check all the hose joints & around any gasket that hold coolant. Also get underneath & shine a torch up at the core plugs (they rust & leak eventually).
