And...the price of fish? answer to life, universe and everything??? Dunno mate! :confused:

If it's a TD5 you're talking about, you take your chances but it could end in tears and costing more. Talk to Richard at Turner Engineering about all things LR engines. I bit the bullet and went for a new Spanish AMC head. Much better than the LR original.

Hi all, It seems there are 3 PN's for VSS Relays on the Defender PRC4427 AMR3325 STC61888 Does anyone know the specs of each one (eg current rating, turn on / off voltage) Many thanks! Vaughn

Well, the final instalment of this problem - I got the 'new' ECU, coded it up with an appropriate map with the new Nanocom Evolution and away she went without any further symptoms. So it was a defective ECU after all... Thanks for help and suggestions, both in this thread and those gleaned from...

It's not one I have seen mentioned in the forums but there are contributors out there with far more expertise than me on these matters.

Whilst waiting checked the fuel filter housing for possible blockage of the non-return valve or air bleed valve. Don't have a non-return valve fitted but will fit one as this improves throttle response on initial startup. Air bleed valve 'looks' OK but will replace it anyway. Man with Autologic...

Yep, that's what I put on the last line of my previous post. Earth connection from ECU to frame good. Got a guy coming with Autologic tester tomorrow evening to see what that box of tricks can see. In the meantime, I'm tracking down an ECU and hopefully my new Nanocom will arrive tomorrow (snow...

Well, engine loom and injector harness fitted today - no change. Runs for a few mins then dies and won't restart. Still logging injector charge long on all injectors so I'm down to the ECU now. If that doesn't fix it then I think i'll torch the bloody thing - well, ok I probably won't but I'll...

I understand what you're saying re voltages. I was going to retry the test using my electrical tester to run the insulation tests (can put 250v or even 500v along the disconnected cables) but it was just too bloody cold yesterday! After a bit more research I also realise now that it's old...

Also, thanks for the info re ECU fuel maps. I kind of wished I'd forked out for a Nanocom now instead of the Hawkeye. Anyone near East Grinstead with a Nanocom?

Thanks for the response. I understand the rationale for pointing to the loom and as I say will be replacing it anyway. The ECU plugs and headers have been thoroughly cleaned out and are oil free now. The injector plug end of the engine loom was oil free anyway so the 'new' harness isn't...

Hi all, I've got a 1999 Defender TD5 110 Hard Top HD with 168k miles. Having previously been very reliable, it died whilst driving last week and now refuses to start. Occasionally it will but dies again within 1-5mins and then refuses to start again for a period of a day or two. Using...

Any ideas? Someone...

Or how about something like this: ..:: Military Gendarmerie of The Polish Armed Forces :: Vehicles ::..

I saw a video on YouTube with someone dropping the radius arms with wheels on the ground (well, raised on a four poster ramp anyway) so what the hell, I went for it and did the same, albeit on my driveway - hey presto, it worked! Not too difficult, just did one arm at a time so the axle stayed...

Hi all, I'm having a bit of a session on my 110 TD5 this weekend, fitting polybushes, new steering swivel joints, a-frame swivel, and anti-roll bar drop links. I've got a question, can I remove front radius arms and rear lower links with the wheels on the ground or does it need to be jacked up...

Hi, It's been a while since I posted this one but can anyone tell me what thread is needed for the T piece? Thanks, Vaughn.

Hi, According to the TPOIx vehicle feature list for my Defender 110 TD5 it has a "LOCKING REAR AXLE". Does that mean I have an LSD or some other sort of diff lock? If so, it's not apparent - how would I be able to tell, short of removing the diff cover? BTW, I have a Salisbury rear axle if that...

Hi, My 110 TD5 died on the motorway today from lack of drive in any gear except 4th. I'm guessing something to do with stripped teeth to layshaft or shattered bearing maybe. Every other gear is selectable but no drive and there is a rumbling noise from the gearbox when the clutch is let in...
