ashtrans Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 sorry I am not sure, whatever was in the V8 50th defenders, was 4.0, now 5.0, I think it's on the same injection system but engines aren't my strong point ! Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobtail84 Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Dave, the sensor on the 4.0ltr V8 was a 0-5v sensor. It's the same as on all the later V8s. HTH Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FridgeFreezer Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 Do you mean "is there a 0-5v signal coming from this" or "is it possible to use this to give a 0-5v signal to something"? It's just a potentiometer, the 5v comes from the ECU, if the ECU gave out 10v you'd get a 0-10v signal from it instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Range Rover Blues Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 He beta me to it TBH. The only thing I would check it whther it was a linear or log pot though but I suspect they are all much of a muchness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave The 50th uses the same TPS as the P38a GEMS (up to 2000). They seem pretty lineair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
