    P38A The arrival of a P38

    Hello everyone! I'll update you a bit with my work, I opened the actuator to clean the sludge from the coil and the tracks, I cut the 7 contacts. There was dirt between the coil and the stator that rotates with the actuator pin and the movement was not smooth. I used isopropyl alcohol as...

    P38A The arrival of a P38

    at post #124 Wammers says: "Nanocom info does say later ECU versions had trimmable values. Maybe the early ones don't need the numbers. But not entirely sure. As said the 97 one didn't have them but I loaded them. But it was a bit of a mishmash as said."...

    P38A The arrival of a P38

    Hi Grrr! it's true yours is also one of the first but I remember reading that apart from updated electronics, you have a BeCM V36 or 37, so you will also have a more recent ECM than mine. There's a post talking about this, if I find it I'll post it

    In theory you can apply more force, in practice you can apply more swearing 😂

    P38A The arrival of a P38

    I cleaned the injectors but the dirt was less noticeable than on the FIP. Due to the lack of numbers in the first models, after many unsuccessful attempts to write them, I read it in a post, I don't remember if it was an old Wammers post or on rangerovers.net. These days I'll get busy with the...

    Thanks datatek always very helpful! I imagined they were bacteria due to the long period of downtime, but can they cause the pump to malfunction and therefore white smoke?

    P38A The arrival of a P38

    Hello guys! On Saturday I did some checks to understand the nature of the problem with the car making white smoke and not idling. I checked the flow rate of the lift pump and it does 220ml in 10 seconds. I checked the timing chain alignment again. I opened, checked and cleaned the injectors...

    are you saying to disconnect the pilot injector and see if there is a worsening or not? If the situation remains unchanged it would obviously be the injector that is the problem...

    P38A The arrival of a P38

    Hi everyone ! good and bad news. The good news is that the engine started almost immediately, the engine runs well, revs well (revved to 3,000rpm) and doesn't make strange sounds. The bad news is that it doesn't idle and only starts with the accelerator fully pressed, it emits a lot of black...

    I always say it too, check flatness with a rectified ruler, if it is out of clearance you plane. All the workshops around here dismantle and plan without even checking :mad:

    Exactly! before making further attempts I'll put in a new battery, it could also be due to the low voltage...

    No, mine is a type 1, it doesn't have connectors under the seat. The yellow cables only reach inside the dashboard. I think it only has two front airbags

    P38A The arrival of a P38

    Hello Guys! The new valves are slow to arrive, so I go on to solve other problems, replacing the passenger lock, the microswitches were out of order and the tailgate ground was broken. These were the conditions:I then disconnected the RF antenna which drained the battery within a few days and...

    Unfortunately there is no way to know who the culprit is without disassembling but don't bandage your head before breaking it, most likely it's just the gasket. You will have to disassemble the two heads if it is necessary to smooth and change the gasket. If you want to try to keep costs and...

    yes, the head has been tested with a rectified ruler and has no distortions. Same thing for the base.

    P38A The arrival of a P38

    This weekend I continued with the work, after having assembled the sump and the oil pump, I positioned the lower part of the chain and sprockets then timing protection casing, I tightened the crankshaft bolt to the expected RAVE brute force, then water pump with metal impeller. Finally the...
