    Coolant Sensor Wiring

    To keep the request on-point :-) Does anyone have: 1: simple re-wiring diagram for fans (I'm trying to get the Aircon to work as well). What I mean by "simple" is to remove the relays - the manual is not explicit in the wiring of these and they have certainly been messed with 2: an easy to...

    Coolant Sensor Wiring

    So as per my Clutch update, I'm getting to the original problems. The primary cause of the mis-firing/spluttering was the fuel pump. The previous owners had REMOVED THE FUEL FILTER from the submerge-pump so, I'm going to do injectors at some point. :-/ She is running pretty well, but not...

    Gearbox Removal 1.8l K

    Update: Took me a while as work got in the way, and work-shop space was tricky to access on demand. - I removed the front wheels and driveshafts - I was able to split the IRD/Gearbox and able to remove the 'box as a stand-alone unit - The Clutch Plate was, actually, the culprit not the fork...

    IRD Input Shaft Seal

    Evening peops I finally got around to removing my FL 1 k-series box to replace the clutch (as it turned out, it was, in fact, a clutch plate breakage). My methodology was to follow the manual and split the IRD from the 'box...rightly or wrongly. Anyhow, I can get all the parts in Cape Town...

    Gearbox Removal 1.8l K

    Afternoon all I'm in the process of doing the clutch on my '98 1.8L Freelander. The Haynes manual suggests that the gearbox removal must be done by first splitting the IRD and removing the exhaust and drive shafts yet youtube would suggest that this is not necessary? There is a youtube video...

    Coolant Sensor Wiring

    Yes I've already replaced the bracket (and the Master/Slave sealed unit). The release arm moves freely 1-2" to-from the slave... She was driving fine, parked her and 2 hours later there was no clutch disengagement (despite there being foot pressure). I find it hard to believe that it is the...

    Coolant Sensor Wiring

    Thanks a bunch @Nodge68 - my parcel of Terranova diag plus new coolant guage arrived yesterday from LRDirect (pretty good speed considering the continents and hemisphere crossing! Alas the clutch suddenly went t1ts up (I'm pretty sure its a siezed fork/bearing) so that is going to need to get...

    Coolant Sensor Wiring

    Morning All I can't open the RAVE files on my Mac so trying my luck here. My '98 1.8l came to me with some botch wiring adaption on the coolant sensor. Could someone tell me either: 1: ECU connector pin to coolant connectors (2 wires) 2: Coolant Sensor wiring diagram / colours from loom. My...

    For my Sins

    Thanks @Nodge this is pretty helpful! Yes i'm aware of the two sensors - at some point I will trace the temp-guage wiring to see wether its correct - no temp guage seriously sucks...i'm trying to fit a direct guage but its not as straightforward as on a series...there's no way through the...

    For my Sins

    Thanks guys! Today's development is that if I disconnect the ECU coolant sensor, she runs better and if i reconnect just one of the wires then she runs marginally better. However connecting the second wire results in return to very poor running. To elaborate on the situation, this vehicle is 3...

    For my Sins

    The only other thing I did was re-lug the wires on the temperature sensor (which I believe is used to sense cold start?) as the lug was broken. This did not help the poor cold start incidentally

    For my Sins

    For my sins I sold a series and bought a Freelander. Sadly Price dictated the purchase so I will have many posts here.. Today I was hunting why the temp gauge doesn't budge at all. Part of the process was checking fuses - me pulling each individual fuse out and inspecting it. Long story short...
