Job done - it was so simple and has probably always been the case - the little tab that holds the clip was not bent in sufficiently so the lug could not make contact. Bent it back and all good. Thanks Lancorky and thanks to all those that offered advice - really appreciated.

I will have a look later. I cannot see how the pin locks. Can anyone explain?

Another small annoying problem. Fuel flap releases no problem, only issue is it won't close properly. I had this a while back. The small plastic clip that is secured inside the flap was broken and the small bar that secures the cap in place when it is closed could not engaged. I replaced the...

Update time - I changed the harness and for a non mechanic, it was quite a simple job. Fired the Disco up and the misfire has gone. I would go as far to say that the engine has run better than it has for a long time. The harness was probably breaking down for a while without me noticing. The...

I don't think so. It has been suggested the injector harness. I am assuming that is different.

Cleaned out the red plug - stripped out as much as I could. Turned the ECU upside down on blue tissue - nothing came out. The amount of oil in the plug was very small. Put it all back together and the symptoms persist. Would this still suggest a new harness? I thought it was because the seals...

Just removed the red plug. There is a small trace of oil inside. I am going to clean this up and replace. Hopefully it will do a temporary fix until I can replace the harness. Need to go off and get some spray now.

Thanks, Tony. What is the issue with the OEM harnesses?

The harness has never been changed. I will look into this. Thanks.

Just a thought. I am going to look at the plug tomorrow. If there is oil in the plug, I will strip it down as the link above suggested. I don't think however I will open up the ECU at this point. If I clean the plug up and replace, would this suffice as a temporary fix? I can then arrange a new...

Just had a look at the red plug and it appears OK. If weather is fine tomorrow, I will take the ECU out and have a proper look. If it isn't the ECU, any other suggestions?

That's a good point, no I haven't. Would it clear at 1500rpm?

Disco as always performed really well in the snow. Issue occurred yesterday evening, when it started to misfire. Had it been a petrol car, I would have said plugs or leads. The misfire is only present up to about 1500 rpm, after which it seems to clear. I am convinced the engine seems louder...

Thanks, discool. When you last posted about the screws, I had another look. I undid some more screws, but, couldn't get the unit out. It came loose, but wouldn't pull forward. There were tabs that screws clearly screwed into that were preventing the unit coming out. My thoughts at the time were...

Is the remaining part difficult to take off? Can anyone point me towards a how to link? Thanks
