    v8 major service/overhaul

    Yes i'm looking at doing that on my newly acquired 3.9, it looks disgusting in there. Here's what I'm looking at: camshaft kit with cam, chain, gears, lifters and gaskets. Pushrods and rockers, rocker shafts. You don't need to take the motor out unless you want to replace/grind/bore...

    help please! Me and all else stumped.....

    I'd do an even more basic check and remove the spark plugs for study. If they look substantially different from each other thats your first warning sign.

    Testing TPS on 3.9

    I'm testing the throttle pot on a Disco 1, 3.9 engine, 14CUX. Various docs such as Rover 14CUX Hot Wire Mass Flow EFI: Service and Troubleshooting indicate the resistance across the 2 outer wires should be around 5000 ohms. However I measure 10x that much. Should I be worried? Resistance across...
