Where is no 1 cylinder ??

<< < (2/2)

burgerman:
 :(  Thats how i have it,    I only hope the engine fairys turn up over night and sort her out  [-o<

   Im kinda stumped now, i have replaced the dizzy, cap, rotor arm, ignition amplifier, cleaned the plugs and checked they are sparking, there is fuel on um also, tried warming the plugs first, also a sniff of easy start  I also put all the old parts back on and changed 1 item at a time


    Just spins over with out even a hint of firing  :'(

   WHY ME ???????

Range Rover Blues:
Take all the leads off, then try No.1 lead across the other side of the dizzy, ie 4 leads later (or earlier) and give it a quick wind.

If it coughs then you were 180 degrees out.

The other way is to look inside the rocker cover and see if the rockers for No.1 are rocking, but I don't find that conclusive sometimes, you may need to turn the engine to see anything.

hairyasswelder:
1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 is the firing order  ;)

bilge rat:
yep does sound 180 deg out so it will be firing on the wrong stroke.  alan......

burgerman:
 :oops:  Yep it was 180 out  :oops:    Oh well we live n learn :lol:
