Range Rover Blues:
What you need mate is the Haynes manul for the RRC, not the haynes book of confusion for Discovery. It is so much better.
IIRC the EFi temp sensor and the Temp guage sender are both just behind the thermostat. The EFi sensor is the one with 2 wires.
My Haynesmanual tells me all the resistor values and goes through a set of tests to diagnose basic faults with all the EFi sensors and controls. A very good place to start.
If you are still struggling I have a copy of Rovacom if you live nearby.
petergalileo:
Noticed you are in Essex, If you get stuck or want a diagnostic tlmlandrovers.co.uk in Tendring have one. I am in Clacton if you get stuck.
peasey:
right lads this is what i have done so far i have checked every vac hose and jesus theres a lot and all are fine i have checked the resistance on the fuel thermistor and it seems to work i have checked the throtle postion thing at the front of the inlet manifold and all assciated wiring and fixed my cruise control while i was there unknowingly!!!!!!! but i still get the same problem of the staling on the first turn of starting and then she starts but the revs rise and fall from 900 to 250 until you rev her? thats it im fresh out of ideas now is this somthing that i am just going to have to live with or does she have to go in to land rovers for an operation(££££)???
