Range Rover EFI
dazzawhipple:
Hi have been offered a RR 1986 EFI but.............Has a big oil leak around the valley gasket and a miss fire
Interested as my daughter dont like the 90 but is the problems listed easy to fix??????
Merlin:
Hi, the oil leak I can't help with but the misfire on mine when I bought it was caused by the ECU. I borrowed one to try & that fixed it, suggest you try the same, expect to pay about £100 for a second hand one if that does fix it.--Cogs
Range Rover Blues:
Try replacing the valley gasket with a composite one from Rimmer's.
Give us a bit more detail on the miss-fire, is it regular or irregular? what speed/load conditions or is it at idle? have you done a comp test? Is it on LPG?
Range Rover Blues:
BTW the 86 EFi is the flapper type, almost anything can cause miss-fire so look for air leaks and a bent flap in the airflow meter. If you pay £100 for the ECU you were seen off, pay £40 ish and no more.
The Fat Controller:
don't forget the distributor,the relucters in them some times play up.helped to do one on a RRC 1989 V8 got the part from mansfields.
please remember this is just a thought and gives you something else to check if all else fails.
