Its happened again!!

<< < (2/3) > >>

jaysastud:
i had this problem on a 93 l reg 3.5 V8.i fitted a new coil which fixed it for afew days then tried another same roblem again i then(reluctantly)bought a coil from land rover(which cost a small fortune) and then had no more problems so it sounds to me like you may have the same issue.dont know for sure but may be some help.good luck!

wonderboy:
Finally got round to replacing the coil.  Found that the capaitor attached between the +15 and earth had rusted away.  Looks like that may have caused the problem but now ive got a new coil theyll both be changed.  Just got to wait till some daylight tomorrow to finish the job.

wonderboy:
Finally got it fixed after three weeks abandoned in the village.  Turns out that it was just a £3.15 capacitor that caused all the problems.

wonderboy:
Well its done it again!! :evil:
Just going to check for a spark.  So figers crossed. [-o<

wonderboy:
Well theres no spark :(
Looks like the CHEAP coil is no good.  Should have bit the bullit and payed a small fortune to LR to get a genuine one.  Ah well lesson learned!
Another week of snow predicted and the disco will be off the road again!  Looks like Im going to have to [pussy cat] foot around once again in the focus...boo!!
