My D1 turns over and fires with my Fluke multimeter showing a battery voltage which of 10.5V which is after of three weeks unused. My meter is handed over for certification every year along with the Fluke meters the firms five engineers use, they all come back with a spec stating over reading...

When once my 3.9 had a intermittent time with it it’s idling I put Redex Petrol System Cleaner into the tank and the issue never returned, maybe using supermarket petrol (which I still use) caused the issue so a fuel cleaner is still used once a year. With my 3.5 a clogged crankcase breather...

So, from your attached video we see that the engine at idle of around 1750rpm, then there’s a few blips of the throttle and then after the revs drop slightly below the idle speed, then will increase back to 1750rpm… yes? Also unfortunately i’m confused with your statement “when I apply the gas...

Of course I expect you have added to your list signs of ‘water ingress’ to your list 😊. Sunroofs, front footwells and the rear door are your starters, and have been mentioned in the disco 1 & 2 forum posts over the years.

So how is a reprint copy of a Land Rover workshop manual for the D1 going to help the OP who is looking to purchase a D2 🤔

90 Ok just noticed a ‘typo’ from me, so try pt no. ANR3194 for non ABS for D1s with a from a VIN number from MA0894992 ie the 300 series valve.

We i’m surprised on Paddocks making an error, I expect they have access to a parts catalogue online in one format or the other just like Rimmer's do, the main dealer parts dept always has way done with their Microfiche slides. Anyway the valve has three pipe connections , so from the master...

Of course as you know all four wheels can lock-up, and even if fitted with ABS if the conditions are right 😊

Rubbish but perhaps he thinks you have D1 with air suspension or supplied the wrong item 🤔 Did they ask the model year of your vehicle and if it had ABS or not. If you have a 200 series D1 and which is RHD then the pt number for a pressure control release valve is NTC 6868L although I expect...

Google : U type panel clips, or just panel clips. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/183729524688?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=EgGS6wAyTp-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=ollszqPzTla&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

The fuelling for the engine is controlled by an ECU, so cause & effect, find out why its running rich it could be as simple as an iffy temperature sensor. Some 3.5s were fitted as a customer option with an exhaust catalyst which sometimes have their own problems with sensors. Possibly it would...

The H prefix takes u to the first EFI 3.5 engined disco from Aug 1990 to July 1991. The 3.5 is not the most powerful of disco 1 V8s… but you shouldn’t find an issue going up motorway hills other than pushing down the throttle a bit further maybe, for other hills u may have to drop a gear ratio...

Its coloured green if its original and positioned on the end of the bottom row of three, also a green petrol pump relay is in the RH footwell. I don’t think the number of doors the vehicle has will make any difference. 🤔

Purchase a rubber/plastic bung or bungs to suit if u have more holes, and with some degreaser and brush loosen it up and then use a hose or power washer. Just standard stuff 😊

How exact do you want to be ? I do know the location of the main points as they are obvious enough within the engine bay and foot wells. 😊

Oh a link showing a five cylinder head gasket, As I don’t know anything about diesel or TD5s or any other head gaskets, so I can’t help.😊

Possibly an iffy earth connection, maybe in the engine bay or the one in each of the front foot wells.

Soldering crimp connectors is a bad idea. A soldered connection is rigid, so any movement of the wire will cause it to harden at the connection, eventually causing it to break. The crimp will move some so there is not a single stress point. Also there can be issues using heat at the point of a...

It is a symptom of a faulty idle control valve (stuck or sticking)… its another fragile item the V8 has I believe, so, follow the instructions if you wish to remove it. The idle speed is over 1000 RPM + when first starting from cold but should settle down with in 10 seconds, my disco drops...

The ABS was fitted/option for the 300 series D, so as the OP has done his research and given a part number confirmed in the attached link we can assume that their post relates to the 200 series.
