    Need Help with '92 Classic

    Ok, I need some help here because this is completely out of my league.. 1992 Range Rover, 112,000 miles. I had a major head gasket blow out externally. While it was being fixed and since they were there, I had the water pump and timing chain and cover replaced too. I got Rover back and...

    92 Classic... pbbttt.. stalled

    My 92 classic died in the left turn lane. Just sputtered and died. It has done this in the past but not enough to replicate the problem for a mechanic. In the past, it's always restarted instantly. This time,, not so. It is still out in an area parking lot and will not start. To me, it...

    Gas Leak!

    I was hoping there was some place online I could look up to see if their was a recall on my 92. My 'local' dealer is anything but helpful so I'm hesitant to call them for anything. All I do is walk in and they say.. "we don't do classics" I just want to order some parts "we don't do classics"...

    Gas Leak!

    My 92 RR also just started doing this. Only when I let it fill until it stops. It only leaks for a few seconds and then stops. Now when I hear it's getting full I stop it automatically, and no more leaks. I know this is not solving the real issue, but it does prevent gas from leaking. I...

    92 Classic with Interesting Issue

    Ok, here's a new one for me.. Bear with me as I try to explain in detail and save having to add more info later.. My 'Check Engine' light is on, and supposedly there should be some sort of digital display on a module under the passenger side seat that gives me a fault code. However, it looks...

    Key Will Not Turn

    Yeah been down those roads... that's what I was hoping for but the wheel and shifter thing doesn't do it either. I even made sure the battery was fully charged. Do I have a locksmith change out the lock or does a dealer need to do that?

    Key Will Not Turn

    Now, in addition to the screaming noise under the hood, my ignition key will not turn. I have the original key and 3 copies and none will turn the ignition. I've had this problem from time to time but usually just a quick wiggle will allow it to work. It does look like the previous owner...

    Screaming Banshees Under The Hood

    Anything is possible at this point. It's still too internmittent for me to get a handle on. But it's never happened at a time when I could actually open the hood. The first time I heard it I was thinking it almost sounded like something under extremely high pressure releasing it through a bad...

    Screaming Banshees Under The Hood

    Wet Floorboards

    No A/C.. Here in the Mitten State we're in that limbo season.. no heat, no air, sometimes have the wndows open. Someone I was talking last nigth right after I posted this Q said they have this stuff that will absorb it. You open a can and let it set overnight... I'm trying that tomorrow...

    Wet Floorboards

    While cleaning out the inside of my '92 RR, I noticed that under both driver and passenger side carpet, that it was quite wet. There is no rust or holes, just very wet. It does not get thru to the carpet because of the rubber lining or whatever it's called. This leaves me with 2 Q's 1...

    92 Classic Not Starting.. Sudden

    The cause was a broken wire to some sensor.. Forgot which one. But it was broken inside so it wasn't visable. But she's running again so I am happy.

    92 Classic Not Starting.. Sudden

    Well, my 92' has no LCD on that black box. It's just a black box, all metal. On th eplus side it's running again, so that kinda leads me to thinking it may be a catalytic converter typ thing.. who knows..

    Split Fire Plugs.. Good or Bad?

    Yeah I ride a motorcycle most of the warmer months..that helps offset it.!! My main worry on the splitfire plugs is that they make your engine run hotter. They're also mor eexplosive and old gaskets can have problems with them. I got that from their own literature. Anyway, I keep reading...

    Split Fire Plugs.. Good or Bad?

    I've been thinking about putting some split fire spark plugs in my '92 classic with 63k on it. But then I remembered that those type of plugs run hotter than standard plugs and I was concerned about the aluminum block. Has anyone else tried these? I'm looking for ways to improve my...

    92 Classic Not Starting.. Sudden

    Thanks Isawicki... I'm going to print that and bring it with me to the shop tomorrow. That link was also helpful to me for the future.. I didn't know the Rover "check engine" light was something more serious than the American "check engine" lights. I will remember that one. Now I need...

    92 Classic Not Starting.. Sudden

    Hey, that's a good start,, thank you VERY much.. How do I view this LCD readout? (rover is currently in the shop). Is it the little black box type thing on the end of the black cord? (<----displaying my total command of auto mechanics terminology). I ask this because on that link you...
