I took mine in after 2yrs sitting and it passed with 2 balljoint covers being advised

Hopefully i'm lucky this march when its due again!!!

Yanking it on while moving wouldn't do the UJ's much good i'd of thought!

Still quite tough though!

The handbrake in on the back of the transfer box.

What a stupid twat..

How is this bloke a tester?

My MOT man put the handbrake on and selects drive in the car park, if it can hold the car while in gear at idle its fine..

Same for my Discovery, lever travel too is a good indicator.

James Taylor would know for sure.

Try emailing the bloke i'm PM you his email address.

If the Oil seal on the compressor side of the Turbo has failed I'd refrain from driving it, sounds like it needs a new boost maker ;)

I added the list of stuff I've done to mine in the "notes" section of my profile.

"cough"

lol

Still wouldn't have any other car though so it's worth it to me, smiles per gallon!

Whoops!

A waterproof enclosure for that ECU is on the cards I'm guessing!! lol

Is The Turbo still acting up?

Sounds like the front one!

I've cleaned out the plunger thing in the tank..

Thanks!

Erm.

When it is faulting It switches over for around 3seconds then switches back, lack or clarification in OP Sorry!

I have no cable.

In fact I haven't a clue when the ECU is for the gas, i guess it is buried behind something!

P38 doesn't need undertrays i'd remove 'em.

If he considers them likely to come adrift and fly from under the vehicle at speed he could fail it.

I've unplugged this from behind the dash too...

Whatever it is, doesn't stop it running on LPG...

Hiya Chaps

since owning the car she's had issues with LPG it cuts in "when it feels like it" and she runs superb on the stuff..

However the issue is the Majority of the time she doesn't want to switch over, the button on my dash just flashes like a MOFO..

It cut in a few days ago for an entire journey up the M5 I happened to look over at the LPG and it had switched over.

For the first time in ages!

I've already shorted the temp sensor on the Reducer and I've checked the coil/solenoid thing on the tank, the only one I haven't look at yet is the one of the reducer...

If i run her on gas I can shut her off to fill up and it'll switch right back over, however if I leave it for over a day it is a lottery whether it works or not!!

She does run well on the stuff, i'd argue better than on petrol!

Any ideas?

Kudos for adding up your repairs and fuel chaps..

I couldn't do that!

Nice.

My radio doesn't work due to the missing amp, I'll push mine to Peterborough and you can do mine LOL

"just kidding"

Ahem..

Wouldn't mind it myself.

I'm guessing its a tad leggy though with that mileage!

I was on the road to Tarrington today when a nice looking red P38 coming the other way gave a wave!

Same happened yesterday with a green and a blue one!

Made me grin i'm not gonna lie..

You don't see that with other land rovers, not even my D2!

Anyone else have this with other P38s?

H

Just a query guys..

I've had three pumps on this car..

1 The pump I bought her with which had a white label on the motor housing

2 A POS Dunlop unit

3 My current pump which has a green/white label on it..

How many manufactures were there for the EAS pumps for the P38?

Out today for a run up and down the M5 for work and I note the fuel gauge hasn't moved after around 60mi thats odd i thought!!

I happened to glance over to my LPG indictor and it had switched over "unbeknown to me" a few miles back...

One thing I should stress is the LPG system hasn't worked in over 2 yrs It stopped working just after I bought the car!!

Don't know why it has decided to work now, It does run superb on the stuff though, you can balance a coin on the intake manifold.

Gotta start buying LPG now, If i can find a pump!

Hopefully it keeps working!

Height sensor fiitted.

Didn't even have to calibrate it..

Weird..

Wonder if it works?!

Oh did forget..

She needs the rear bumper mounts welding!
