have removed the coils either i am testing it wrong or all the coils are stuffed, is that a thing with these coils ,is their any difference between the cheap and expensive ones. any recommendations on types or brands
i dragged a 10 yarder truck out of the paddock up the drive way, the driver was not impressed about my driveway , its a little narrow a little sloppy a little muddy a little bit of wee and that was on entry. he dropped his load of logs off and on leaving got stuck on the rise out of the paddock so out with the rover and dragged it up the drive much to his surprise .i said to him that they are supposed to have a good traction control system to which his reply was you could see something working
PS my neighbor has ordered wood from the same person and he has not delivered , i think he thinks it's me.

hi all just a note on how its going , have removed all from the inlet side and resealed, as stated didn't find anything obvious . managed to get it started and reving about 2 3 grand and found the entire left bank dead ,no spark . replaced spark plugs on left side no change so its possibly leads but most likely coils, will have another go today .
having another go at the rover today , having convinced myself its an air leak in the system (it starts and stops exactly like the supercharger problem on the other side , it has a video for those that are interested ) i removed the plenum box to clean and reseal. this has been done before.
my question is how important is the water heater on the inlet manifold mine was clogged with some crap, most likely radiator clog your system up in a bottle , can i just do away with the heater.
i have not found anything that was obvious as a leak but i will put it back together with a little more care than previous repairers.
so what time is that here in australia
as stated it starts and then promptly stalls. so far i have removed and tested the TPS all good , removed maf cleaned and inspected removed idle bypass valve cleaned, appears to be working maybe ? also have good fuel pressure at all times. can you test idle bypass and maf with a multi meter if so how ?
this problem started as it would idle but not run , would brake down as you tried to rev the motor and then would go back to idle, now it will just starts and then stalls out and will restart and stall out again. i have used timing light to check that the spark is their all the time , sparks to the last turn so that indicates that it is most likely turning off the injectors . no alarms on the nano other than o2 sensor (yes it is a bit fumey) but was not a problem until now? dose the CPS turn off injection when faulty also can this be tested with multi meter. no alarms on dash or check engine light . it appears that my problem may be associated to something that turns off the fuel system. any help appreciated.

so i have checked the TPS all is good so reset adaptive values and tried to start now it will start and run 3 4 seconds and stall out no throttle response when i checked yesterday the nano showed that an o2 sensor wasn't working now it wont run so i have no readings
have little issue vehicle will start but not run as soon as you touch the throttle it tries to rev and then dies . i will be looking at the throttle positioner to start with , dose anyone else have ideas on this

what is the best way to share a small video from my collection
eg (go pro video)
between the steering wheel and the steering box is a universal type joint , this is most likely your problem . get the wife to move the steering wheel and note the movement , it needs to be minimal, like millimeters . generally not serviceable just replaceable
have done a couple of earlier ones , generally they leak because the bushing has worn on the bottom of the shaft or the shaft itself has worn
PS their was two seals available for them standard and a better one.
my biggest mistake i made was to let the girl friend at the time (now wife) drive my classic. she ran into everything , cleaned up a painters van ,plowed into the rear of it ,bull bars are handy not a scratch, got cleaned up by a builder in his ute ,once again the bull bar coped the brunt of it small repair at his cost , chased down a pain in the ass teenager on a tredly (push bike) and ran over his bike , that was funny . ran into a log on the beach , yes it was a big log you could see it from 50 yards away but she still got it, she loved that bull bar . finally retired the classic and brought the p38 which she damaged on her mayden drive by catching the plastic bumper on something and tore the bottom of it . her comment when i pointed it out to her was well you scratched it as if it doesn't matter anymore....
i thought it worked both ways , to much extension and not enough collapsibility , if the shock will not compress to the bump stops it will bend the shock so you have to move the stops , also it will stretch your brake lines and abs lines if extended to far. you need to find out what the measurement is at min and max extension and compare with standard.
the pic above resembles the trailer plug on my rover .well there was a plug there they just didn't use it, hacked into it and used those press together clips it was as dodgy as you can get . had to be fixed, so now its soldered.
