Yes this is a GEMs Engine.
I have been checking fuses and relays, but neither appear to be ab issue at this point.
The car does start, it started last night. It sputters for a bit and then runs. If I turn it off it wont start again. Its that simple. I will return to the vehicle tonight and check some of the other fuses I did not get a chance to yesterday.
If this does happen to be the fuel pump, can anyone say if I can use a generic fuel pump or if it must be a very specific part that I order from Atlantic British or Land Rover Service?
Hello,
I bought this P38 from Union Jack 4x4 in California. It was shipped to Honolulu nearly 2 weeks ago. As I picked it up from the dock it had a dead battery. Several jump starts later it overheated and was stranded. I managed to push the car to the dealer where I was quoted my second born child to just look at the car.
Long story short, the battery went flat. I towed it to a Local shop where they put a new battery in. It’s an Interstate MT-34. After many try’s the vehicle won’t turn over to start.
Here is a video if my trying to start the car

I ordered parts from Atlantic British to have the local shop install. The parts to install are:
Radiator, thermostat, hoses
Alternator and battery
AC compressor
Everything else was working fine with the usury bits needing fixing but nothing big.
So the questions are,
What am I doing wrong that the car won’t start?
Other than those items listed what else would need to be replaced?
