    Who has used reconditioned parts

    If it's a TD5 you're talking about, you take your chances but it could end in tears and costing more. Talk to Richard at Turner Engineering about all things LR engines. I bit the bullet and went for a new Spanish AMC head. Much better than the LR original.

    Defender won't start - ECU replacement?

    Well, the final instalment of this problem - I got the 'new' ECU, coded it up with an appropriate map with the new Nanocom Evolution and away she went without any further symptoms. So it was a defective ECU after all... Thanks for help and suggestions, both in this thread and those gleaned from...

    Defender won't start - ECU replacement?

    It's not one I have seen mentioned in the forums but there are contributors out there with far more expertise than me on these matters.

    Defender won't start - ECU replacement?

    Whilst waiting checked the fuel filter housing for possible blockage of the non-return valve or air bleed valve. Don't have a non-return valve fitted but will fit one as this improves throttle response on initial startup. Air bleed valve 'looks' OK but will replace it anyway. Man with Autologic...

    Defender won't start - ECU replacement?

    Yep, that's what I put on the last line of my previous post. Earth connection from ECU to frame good. Got a guy coming with Autologic tester tomorrow evening to see what that box of tricks can see. In the meantime, I'm tracking down an ECU and hopefully my new Nanocom will arrive tomorrow (snow...

    Defender won't start - ECU replacement?

    Well, engine loom and injector harness fitted today - no change. Runs for a few mins then dies and won't restart. Still logging injector charge long on all injectors so I'm down to the ECU now. If that doesn't fix it then I think i'll torch the bloody thing - well, ok I probably won't but I'll...

    Defender won't start - ECU replacement?

    I understand what you're saying re voltages. I was going to retry the test using my electrical tester to run the insulation tests (can put 250v or even 500v along the disconnected cables) but it was just too bloody cold yesterday! After a bit more research I also realise now that it's old...

    Defender won't start - ECU replacement?

    Also, thanks for the info re ECU fuel maps. I kind of wished I'd forked out for a Nanocom now instead of the Hawkeye. Anyone near East Grinstead with a Nanocom?

    Defender won't start - ECU replacement?

    Thanks for the response. I understand the rationale for pointing to the loom and as I say will be replacing it anyway. The ECU plugs and headers have been thoroughly cleaned out and are oil free now. The injector plug end of the engine loom was oil free anyway so the 'new' harness isn't...

    Defender won't start - ECU replacement?

    Hi all, I've got a 1999 Defender TD5 110 Hard Top HD with 168k miles. Having previously been very reliable, it died whilst driving last week and now refuses to start. Occasionally it will but dies again within 1-5mins and then refuses to start again for a period of a day or two. Using...
