  1. So the problem starts when the system goes to closed loop (when the engine gets warm) Try disconnecting the MAF and see if that makes any difference also you could try unplugging the lambdas. I had a similar problem and now run with the lambdas permanently disconnected. I find it makes no difference to performance or MPG. I have also replaced the expensive plugs with standard ones and that gave a much better performance on LPG
  2. before we venture around Australia will be to ditch the ZF auto and replace it with a R380 My understanding is the auto is a much stronger box than the R380 !!!!
  3. V8 with Multi point LPG. Year 2000. I had a similar problem with mine, miss firing between 1500 and 2500 rpm. I tried lambdas, MAF, plugs, HT leads, even HT coils but no change. In the end I disconnected the Lambdas and it ran like a dream.Has been OK for the past two and a half years. No change in MPG or power. Earlier this year I changed the recommended, very expensive, plugs for standard V8 ones and the power increase was very noticeable. I understand that the only reason for the recommended ones are in order to extend the service mileage requirements but it's very difficult to adjust the gap for LPG, in fact they say the gap is fixed and should not be changed. Try a set of standard ones as for the D1.
  4. They all came from here in the first place. If the production line was running short of boxes for UK units and US spec ones were available they may well have transfered US units to UK units. Omitting to wire in the eletrics.
  5. See part 29 US Only!!!! transfer box.pdf
  6. This one may be more help. steering 4.pdf
  7. Hi, Please find attached RAVE information not sure the details are clear enough for your problem. steering1.pdf steering2.pdf steering3.pdf
  8. The attached PDF files show the system. looks like a big job but if the refrigerant lines can be isolated you may be able to remove the rear Assembly otherwise the whole system will need to be drained. rear air1.pdf rear air2.pdf rear air3.pdf
  9. Please find attached PDF files showing 00 and 03 wiring hope these help I was looking to do the same but an article in this month LROI was saying the update headlights are a magnet for the tea leafs. (wonder where yours came from?) Might hold off for now. D2 Series II O0MY.pdf D2 Series II O3MY.pdf
  10. Rear door is the same but all others are not.
  11. Point of interest; The window drive motors are the same for both the D1 and D2 BUT reversed. Left on a D1 fits the right door on a D2 Right on a D1 fits left on a D2. Strange is it not. jiginc
  12. Front windows operate through the BCU(Body Control Unit) Check F29 and F34 passenger compartment fuse box.
  13. The engine mounting brackets will require moving.
  14. I would have thought that if you just want to remove the dim dip disconnect either end of the golden resistor and tape the end of the wire. If you want the dim dip with full power (Not sure why though) short the ends of the resistor or disconnect the wires from the resistor and solder them together,
  15. Mine is a 2000 on an x plate and is still on the origional air springs. jiginc
  16. The land Rover manual states 28 front and 38 rear. So thats what they should be. jiginc
  17. Quick answer is NO. The front shocks on a D2 lower end are a flat bar through the rubber bush with two holes at each end. The rubber fails and allows the shock to move as you described. It's an MOT fail. Replacement is not difficult, I replaced the turrets as they were corroded. Turrets are expensive (compared to D1) as only OEM items available.
  18. Just had mine fail it's MOT due to nackered bushes and turrets. As said plenty of easing fluid and careful spanner work, all mine came off OK. If one does shear then you need a replacement ring. As replacement shocks are only £18 each I changed both units. Much easier than replaceng the bushes. actually I could not see how the bushes could be replaced. Turrets can only be replaced by OEM parts so a little expensive at £51 each plus VAT. Total replacement time 2 hours. jiginc

    V8 to LPG

    It is recomended on D2's not to fit under sill tanks (If that's what you mean) Too many pipes etc and a compressor in the way. I had the petrol tank replaced with two tanks in the same space. and a small petrol tank installed in the rear wing space. As above you must use sequential gas injection system as a backfire will damage the inlet manifold. Average cost is £2,500 jiginc
  20. Have you got the MODULE-SEAT HEATER-LH (D177) fitted? Description: Module-seat heater Location: Underside of front passenger's seat Seat Heating Description The heated seat elements for each seat are supplied power from a seat heat module located on the underside of the seat frame. The seat heat module provides consistent temperature control of the seat heater elements. A negative temperature coefficient variable resistor is located in the seat cushion heater element. The resistor changes its resistance as the seat cushion temperature increases or decreases. The resistance is monitored by electronics within the seat heat module, which raises or lowers the power supplied to the elements and controls the element temperature between 26 and 36F).
  21. As advised by the LR guy I have unplugged the Lambdas and it now runs fine no pops or judders. Not sure what it's done to the MPG but we shall see. It now runs open loop all the time as expected.
  22. Many thanks for the help guys. I am away for the next 7 days but will resume the diagnostics when I return home. Will report back then. jiginc
  23. Hi Martin, Will try this however. I have been advised by a LR tech that lambdas do not respond well to LPG and the best way to run it would be to remove the sensors and run on open loop. Any one got and comments on this!!!!
  24. Hi, Both sensors are new and OEM parts. Not that that means they are 100%. thanks
