Damn it...Speedo & LPG problems

<< < (2/2)

Range Rover Blues:
On the RR the electronic speedo came in with the hot wire EFi.  Early models had mechanical speedos and a split cabel with the transducer, the top half of the cabel was dropped with the intorduction of the electronic speedo.  R380 gearboxs have the transducer bolted direct tot he box though.

The same speed signal inputs to the EAS, cruise and EFi.

That's the change on Disco's too, the 200 Series had the LT77 with a cable speedo, the R380 fitted to 300's from '94 on have the transducer  :wink:

Never had that happen, and the system has been fitted since March 1999, I suspect a sticking valve on one tank (two underslung), which would make my range limited, which it is.

Funny thing is, it'll start after, then appear to run out of gas again, so I suspect the stuck valve isn't giving a complete seal.

Re-filling the tanks makes the problem go away until I've used a part of my range, then the problem returns as before.

Im having a very similar issue. But my gas dumped its load all at once. As i have a BRC system its a royal pain in the butt to find someone to fix it. But i think the consensus is that its down to sticking valves. Bloody annoying.

I looked on ebay last night for some spare tanks. these sill tanks like the ones i have showed pressure gauages on. Now i cant see mine so im assuming if they did have them they would be on top beneath the floorpan.

Who knows. Best of luck fixing it though mate. Maybe if you get it fixed you could pm me with a solution.

Cheers

Range Rover Blues:
To work properly the sender mounting ring should be at 45 degrees on the top hlaf of the tank.  Each tank must have one as the sender contains a float that closes the inlet off at 80% fill, to maintain what's called Ullage or breathing space in the tank.
