adrian flux are the best. I was 18 with a 200tdi 90 with no ncb and it was £750. Now 20 with a 3.9 efi defender heavily modded for £850 1 year ncb both my own policy. My advice join a 4x4 club and put your partner (if you have one) on the insurance shows your grown up :P Dave

Right I fitted the air flow meter and no difference. There is a perfect vacuum and everything. I think the problem lies with the LPG system. I have traced all the wiring and from the coil there is a box that adjusts the timing. Also the injectors are ran through the emulators (part of the...

:doh: after spending a while playing around the LPG system isn't working as I flicked the switch and disconnected the fuel pump and the engine died soon after. The afm should come tomorrow so i'll get the petrol running and i'll then start on the LPG. Thanks for all your help :) Dave

Yes

Thanks for all your help :) I got it started half an hour ago. I ran a new earth from the ecu and that fixed it. The next problem is that it wont rev. Now I know the air flow meter wont allow it to but I've got it going on gas. So the afm shouldn't matter. I've had the timing light to it...

Right it is a rrc engine that has been put into a defender with a LPG conversion. I took it off a friend who had it sitting in a field and it hadn't been running for 3 years after a head gasket went. I was shocked to see no one had put an inertia switch in though after spending hours tracing...

Update; After fixing the starter motor, sealing all the vacuum pipes, cleaning all the earths and adding a few in for good measure. It started for all of 5 seconds and cut out. at least it's something :)

It's a flapper. I have a new one coming, This one works but is really stiff. It just back fired after a few seconds of cranking so I'll double check the timing after I've fixed the starter motor again :mad: David

Your right the fuel pump isn't running on cranking. I'm just about to go have a look and see what i can do. Thanks I'll let you know how I get on Dave

Yes and yes. I've tried everything. I've just been told to double check the earth on the fuels shut off so I'll try that tomorrow. Dave

I am about to give up. I have just finished changing the bearings and the head gaskets. And now it wont start. I have a new distributor. Checked all the earths, I definitely get a spark at the plugs. The fuel pump works very well. The spark plugs smell like they are getting fuel but not...

Great :) when I get the engine back together i'll give it a whirl. Cheers.

I have a 19 J radiator with a built in oil cooler will this work with the V8? Thanks David

I have only just finished my project. Change to a 200tdi. Strip and rebuild replacing parts that need replacing. I would wait for the 19J to give up as said before get a stack of stainless steel bolts. I also got some thin matting to go between steel and aluminium parts to stop corrosion. Brick...
