My 3.9 V8 Auto Disco revs to 1600 when driving then drops back to tickover, then revs to 1600 then drops back to tickover:mad::mad:.

Sitting in neutral (or park) it revs cleanly to the red line but as soon as I'm driving 1600 revs and that's it:mad:.

Any ideas? It'd just had new plugs, leads (high quality stuff), genuine lucas dizzy cap and rotor arm. Could it be the ignition module, coil or ECU? :confused::confused::confused:
 
Sounds like fuel starvation. I'd check fuel lines, fuel filter, fuel pump and pickup in the tank ...
 
Just read you other posts.

It is very rarely the ECU.

Paul ^^^ has made some good suggestions. I would also check for air leaks on the inlet side and check the air flow meter.

I can get these ECUs tested and repaired if needed, but I seriously doubt that that is the problem.
