The main relay is ok. It gets power and it provides power. ECM gets power and ground, so that's okay too. It just does not ground the fuel relay or the coils. Not when ignition is on, nor when cranking. I can only assume that the ECM is dead. Yesterday evening I opened it to check if there's...

Does anyone happen to know what the starting conditions are for a V8? Which sensors should have which values and all that? Volvo for example has a how-to on what you should check in case of a no-start. Pretty handy.

Update: no change with a new CPS.

My alternator is a little weak so every 4-5 weeks I have to charge the battery. You can hear it getting too weak in the last couple of starts, but that wasn't the case just yet. I did charge it when I got the car home and it gave 12,4V. I didn't try to jump start it yet, but I tried now (with a...

Hi! I've had my Discovery 4.0 V8 2000 for almost three years and loved every minute with it. Yesterday was the first time I had to have it towed. A small part of me died. Two days ago, I drove to a client without problems. Two hours later, I couldn't start. It cranked, but did not start up...

Damn, no-one who has a manifold lying around who can check the order? Must've come to the wrong forum :D I tried disconnecting the signal wires to each of the petrol injectors one by one. Tried it when running on petrol and it ran slightly worse with each wire disconnected so there's no petrol...

I put them back the way they were, but left the loom the way it was, but it runs pretty bad this way. Guess I better check the order of the manifold real well. Short fuel trim keeps going negative on the right bank, so I'm more and more suspecting some petrol that keeps getting in.

Christ, of course, pretty stupid of me. Can't seem to find which banana goes to which cylinder though Any idea where to go look?

Yeah they're not made to be parked in a garage, they need to be enjoyed! :D

The problem is that I have to get through technical inspection before I can register it and drive it. I can run it up and down the street, but that's it. Checked some things, changed some things. I noticed that the tubes from the LPG-injectors were connected in an odd way. Cylinder 1 and 7...

Oh damn I forgot something!!! What value should I get with the O2 sensors debranched at the sensor side? This morning I had 0.450V... Seems to me that should be zero, no? Or a TC at least but no, there was nothing

I'll take a look at the LPG injectorrail tomorrow. Didn't inspect that closely yet. Maybe switch them from side

No it can't that's true, but the LPG computer alters the petrol injection signal so it works for LPG, right? Otherwise it would never be able to run on LPG

Can't believe I forgot to mention that; it's a Lovato multipoint injection which (I suppose) piggybacks off the petrol injection.

Thanks man! Need some space to store all those cars huh :D Two dogs actually by the way, they like riding along!
