No it's not two, it's just in a U shape. Can I use a smaller oil rad in its place.

Ok so I have a strange cooler on the back of my buggy. Tracing it back it seems to run to Mack of bell housing. I've not seen this on my other landrovers I guess it's needed? What is it exactly? What's a good after market rad?

Changed meter. I have 0.33v when running and just ignition on

Ok... this is pretty funny. So it took me some time to get the exhaust manifold off as I had to strip some of the buggy panels off to get access to wriggle it out. Cylinder 2 & 4 gaskets were carboned up in a specific area. I took a picture of number 4 On inspection of the bolts on cylinder 2...

Thanks guys. I'd previously read about the TPS being filed to allow for adjustment but also read contradictory info on the later models (mine) being self calibrating. I've managed to strip back the connector rather than cutting or scotch clipping and have some time this aft to test. I'll also be...

Ok, bit of progress; Started her up, felt exhaust manifold. Cylinder 2 & 4 are blowing pretty good so the gaskets are shot (should have some new to fit tomorrow). That probably explains the chuffing noise on the video I removed the TPS and inspected the terminals. All seem clean and shiny. I...

Thanks for the advice. Ill clean all connections tonight and re test. I may have had the meter in in the tens of volts settings by mistake. ill post back up tonight with my findings

I replaced the starter and it fired right up! Thanks for help. I've posted a new thread about my specific engine running issues https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/3-9-efi-running-issues-hot-wire.309997/

I have some zorst manifold gaskets on the way so will swap them out. The sludge is a mm thick so could be condensation. Nothing under oil filter cap and dipstick is nice and translucent oil. I've looked for that TPS online and no one has stock. It's the 1995 on model. ERR2263P is the after...

Ok. Tested the TPS. Negative probe to blue and positive to green. I get no voltage at all. So that must be goosed. Here is a video. Also recorded for the lumpy running and noise to see if anyone can hear it. I can hear a exhaust chuff noise like it has a leak and something else under load...

Yeh that's what I thought. I hadn't planned to change it unless it had an adverse effect. I might look to set it as per the manual once it's all sorted. I'm off in the garage now so will post up my findings on the tps later tonight. Thanks for the help cool

What I meant is that the rotor arm is in the wrong place on the compression stroke, it's pointing to two o'clock (looking at the engine from the front) however that electrode on the dizzy cap goes to piston 1. The following piston firing order on from that clockwise is correct to the manual.

Thanks cool, I'll google how to check for this. I'd planned to clean and check stepper Motor also

After a bit of googling now I'm back indoors... it sounds exactly like this So I'll order some gaskets and get them swapped. Could this cause the throttling issue?

Ok so thought best to start a new thread for the engine in my buggy now it's running. I've checked timing which is about 6degrees btdc on idle with vac disconnected. I've checked air intake for leaks and fit a new filter. Checked all plugs are sparking with the timing gun. 1. When applying...

Thanks rob

Yes it does a little rob. I watched a video on youtube of a bloke changing it and setting it up. Must have been ok for the previous owner to leave it disconnected. On with the next problem :)

linkage functions fine when moved with my hand. it just doesnt go all the way back after using the pedal. the pedal seems to return fine. so as discool says, its probably lack of oil in the sleeve but ill check for snags as you suggest dave.

Sorry Discool, I should have said this is my challenge buggy purchase so the thing is filthy with mud. Ill do as you suggest. Ill come back to the kick down cable once i can get the thing running. Thanks for the help

I concur 19 is in place and the metal throttle linkage does spring back. However it only goes half way back when pressing the pedal and releasing. like the cable is not free moving in its sleeve. Ive taken a picture but its not very good in the dark. What are repercussions of having the...
