Cheers Clarky, that'd be nice. I'll have a wiggle when it stops raining. Nige

Not sure if this helps but it helped me, I had an intermittent fault on my 4.6 hse (97p) and I changed plugs. leads and even teh washer jet pipes which were piddling over the Ht leads at one point. It ended up being a coil for cyls 1 and 6 (same dude), I sussed it after help on here and after...

Hi all, thanks in advance of any help. P38 1997 4.6 HSE 140k Just driving home tonight about 20mph going down hill when BANG! - I thought it was an airspring, rolled to a halt, budda budda budda. Got under, couldn't see any probs with airsprings other than the persistent soft fault...

Anyone else remember the Cigar advert with the Carlos Fandango wide wheels? Wonder if anything has actually changed in the last 35 years?? Have a look - blast from the past! YouTube- Panama Cigars - Carlos Fandango Wheels

I fixed my Cruise this week by trimming some of the rubber pipes into the T link, check these aren't split as they create the vacuum for the cruise ( i think). As for aircon, mine doesn't work either and probably wants refreshing, or whatever they do. Seen Quick Fit offering a guarantee on...

Hi. This is for you if you are considering replacing your front air springs, I hope it will save you some grief! I realised my front air springs were nacked after hearing a hissing noise from the front end and finding that all the pipework was sound. The spring bellows were absolutely shot...

Hmmm Hate it when things like that happen. If they don't want rid then that's good news, I'd put down a small deposit and put a delivery date on the invoice to suit both. You can say you are going away and need to have it a few days beforehand to get used to it. Paint will take three days...

Hiya mate This site was a real sense check for me when I was were you are now, teetering on the edge of madness. i would say 48k is very low mileage for any 10 year old and in many ways that would bother me (even if absolutely genuine) unless it has absolutely faultless FSH with a better main...

Hiya I've just had to order a new coil pack for my 97 4.6 HSE and would like to seel the three good individual coils to any poor b*gger faced with the same expensive dilemma I was. I've tested them all on my difgi meter and they look good, certainly strong sparks in action. PM me for my...

Cheers Mate I ended up removing the pack and testing it with a digial meter, found that number 1 was at 12-13 Ohms and the rest were at 1.0. Ordered a new set from paddockspares.com for £135 plus dreaded. If anyone out there has a problem with a faulty coil let me know, I have three good...

Hi I have no spark at no1 :mad: but the other fed cylinder from that coil (6) is firing like a good'un :D is this possible and does anyone out there have either a whole pack or a single or know where i can get one please? thanks for your help NIge

Hey Gav I'm chasing the same problem, a misfire has cost me an mot fail today and I've identified the fault being no or a very very weak spark at plug 1 (used some natty little lead testers from Halfrauds for 8 squid) What's puzzling me is that the same coil powers cyl 6 and that's as fit as...

Hiya mate I'm having a misfire problem and when i read the rave stuff it said that you can damage teh coil pack if the charge doesn't get dispersed via the plug, I know you're arking out but just to be on the safe side mate. I went to halfrauds and bought some natty little lazer lead testers...

Hi Vinny I'm pretty sure the lack of spark to one cylender won't cause you too many problems other than an excess of unburnt fuel in your cylinder which may have made it's way down the sides of your piston and into the block. may also have passed into the CAT and could damamge that but not very...

Cheers guys, much appreciated. Will take a look around the fusebox first and fingers crossed. Update later on everything else. Looking at the problems people have with these nearly put me off but one thing that has kept me keen (so far) is the fact that you get moments of joy in between the...

I've heard that boosting can cause problems with the BeCM, apparently you're supposed to charge them off the car -has anyone experienved this?

I feel like a big kid. Tomorrow I set off from Scarborough to Oxford on the choo choo to pick up my new baby - a 4.6 HSE. She's having a few problems with engine misfires (looks like Frankenstein's lab under the bonnet with all the sparks flying aboot) so I'm taking a set of HT leads with me...

Hey up Nobber, that sounds all wrong btw mate! Lol I wonder if you've seen the excellent american site Range Rovers ? I was looking through and there are some really sensible suggestions for this sort of thing on there. I would suggest you look at the fusebox pages as these are common and...
