    DATAMax V8 remap for Thor - any experience?

    Agreed.... Went to them once, they said my engine had cracked block and wouldn't last more than a few hundred miles, sold me an overpriced MAF & said that was part of the problem.. 4 years & 30k later I had it rebuilt when it did blow the head on no 1, not by them but by someone who knows RV8's..

    OK, just that I had issues with mine running rough, misfiring, refusing to go closed loop etc.Traced the problem with aid of Faultmate to the reccomended LR platenum Champion plugs, new set lasted just 8k miles & they went down one by one, replaced with Bosch Supers that originally came with car...

    Zavoli LPG Mod

    The temp & rpm that the changeover happens is adjustable in the LPG ECU software, you will need the correct disk & a laptop, or alternativly take to an installer who's familiar with Zavoli. Mine has been taking a while to change over recently, put it down to low ambient temps & use of the...

    Air flow Sensor........

    If the MAF is buggered the Faultmate should pick it up with either a fault code or some funny air flow readings in the live data. Reason why it runs better after the MAF is disconnected is probably due to the ECU reverting to open loop default fueling when it detects a problem with the air flow...

    V8 lpg

    Possible coil pack on the way out, mine went like that ok at idle & crusing but not when you revved it or put your foot down.. Traced fault using some in line testers, soon as you revved the spark went weak on cyl 3

    Which LPG System

    Must be a sequential with a D2 otherwise it will never run right as the previous owner of my car found out when he had to fit a new sequential front end system at a cost of 2k all up.......... Zavoli system, had car nearly 4 years no problems at all with LPG system itself. Whatever system...

    ECU location V8 2002 & unknown yellow greasy fluid

    First thing I would do is get an independent to run a diagnostic on the M 5.2.1 ECU and see what fault codes are there before considering repacing the ECU! From what I understand it takes a major fault on a UK market car to put the light on, mine has run like a bag of ****e at times with...

    Problem with disco 2 V8

    Similar problem to mine, but mine is speed related, take an age for revs to drop when travelling above around 35 mph fine up to that. Not found a cause or cure yet, TPS has been changed along with lots of other stuff... Nothing untoward on the diagnostics either...
