    3.9 efi no fuel, wont start, tested injectors right bank 8 ohms.........

    Well, I found the injector issue. But this has not solved the no start. Which is what I expected to be honest.........

    3.9 efi no fuel, wont start, tested injectors right bank 8 ohms.........

    Hi, Yes the fuel pump primes for a second then goes off when the ignition is turned on. I have checked the cable to the coil and this is good. I have the RRC haynes. The discovery wiring diagram looks the same as the one in the Haynes. The colours of the wires all match up too, and the...

    3.9 efi no fuel, wont start, tested injectors right bank 8 ohms.........

    OK, I will test the fuel pressure. It's a 14cux EFI so if the coils disconnected the ecu will not get a signal to inject fuel. But will it still try and inject fuel if, as tested, 2 off the injectors appear to be out of the circuit?

    3.9 efi no fuel, wont start, tested injectors right bank 8 ohms.........

    I have 3.9 EFI range rover in a 90. It turns over, sparks, but wont inject fuel. The fuel pump spins. Not checked pressure yet as it seems to move fuel. It just stopped whilst idling a while ago, now won't fuel. Gone though the Haynes manual efi checks. Everything's good until the injector...

    Range rover 4.2 Supercharged Head Gasket or Crack?

    Found head gasket sealer everywhere. Had to take 10 thou off the heads to remove the warp. Fitted a new radiator and flushed everything out. It pains me the nice souls I bought her off just launched this stuff in and said nothing just to sell........

    Range rover 4.2 Supercharged Head Gasket or Crack?

    Well after a sudden increase in bubble count and coolant dissapearance I decided to take the heads off. You might think me paranoid, but I am familiar with the signs.

    Range rover 4.2 Supercharged Head Gasket or Crack?

    OK, Yep correct. Hydrolock was not the right description. It hesitates to turn over as if it has higher compression on one of the cylinders because cylinder volume has been reduced with an incompressible liquid (coolant) but not completely filling the cylinder. So it causes a hesitation rather...

    It has has some filler though, so not far off.

    Range rover 4.2 Supercharged Head Gasket or Crack?

    Cheers, I can only see the odd head gasket issue on Jag forums, plus a YouTube head gasket failure. Been through the history file and can see lambda's have been changed..... raises an eyebrow.

    Range rover 4.2 Supercharged Head Gasket or Crack?

    Yep, paranoid. Been there and done the tophat on the 4.6. There is definitely an issue somewhere because it starts lumpy sometimes as if it hydro locking. I will pull the plugs and see if it's washing the top of a piston.

    Eh????. Think might have me confused with somebody else.

    Range rover 4.2 Supercharged Head Gasket or Crack?

    I have googled and cannot find anything on 4.2 SCs with cracks found, so hoping it's uncommon.

    Range rover 4.2 Supercharged Head Gasket or Crack?

    I have done. It passed the idle test, however I don't think there is enough for it to show up. I am going to repeat the test again at some point. I cannot see how I can still be getting bubbles in the expansion tank If there was no head gasket issue or crack somewhere.??????

    Range rover 4.2 Supercharged Head Gasket or Crack?

    I reckon I have a combustion gas leaking into the coolant. Coolant was slowly dissapearing and there are small bubbles in the expansion tank. This is a right pain, job I can do. But didn't need it now. What are the chances of this being a cracked head or block? Anyone heard off blocks heads...
