94, 95 to 96 era factory D1 rear sway bar & rear spring diameter measurements
Anyone have a minute with a caliper and measure their Disco so I can establish what the factory stock coil springs and sway bar diameters are? Rear springs should be around 14 mm to 16 mm diameter range, rear sway bar my guess around the 23 mm range. Recently gifted a 94 D1 (bad engine) that has... -

Coil Pack
I can see a slight mpg increase when installing a free flowing filter while running with a carburetor, that's called running a bit leaner as the carb has fixed jets vs a computer controlled fuel air ratio is always correcting to maintain the computer's chip set program F/A ratio. More air means... -

2012 V8 Gas LR4 P0087 Low Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Problem
Great decal and yes yes one must add "and Bier" to it to be a great American. The ocean's a 30 minute drive away, mountains, forests or the eastern high Sierra desert plains all within a few hrs drive or bike ride away. Take you pick of adventures, motorcycle riding out and away from the... -

2012 V8 Gas LR4 P0087 Low Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Problem
avslash, yes a pretty engine the 928's had. I recall they had FI issues plus the rest of the car having hard parts for. Into air cooled with the wife's 69 912 plus owning dad's (RIP) 54 VW powered by 56 Porsche Speedster engine, trans and Speedster's big aluminum drum brakes. Dad installed the... -

Being in Calif. as well in one of the strictest groups of nine bay area counties, no way would an engine swap pass the visual smog tests. It would take them 1/2 a second after lifting the hood failing us. Bootlegged 4.6 short block with everything else off the 3.9 looking factory stock passes... -

2012 V8 Gas LR4 P0087 Low Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Problem
I fully agree to almost 100% but not as a 60 year production run engine (SBC) has been debugged to the highest degree now making big Hp numbers. Even a Lexis V8 swap I read about on this forum would be my second choice, chebbie the third. Still holding the 4.6 as number one. A dyed in the wool... -

2012 V8 Gas LR4 P0087 Low Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Problem
After watching that Autologic video five or six days ago mentioning the 5.0 LR engine I bet it was not very comforting for any 5.0 powered LR owners. Add to this anyone on the fence thinking of purchasing a LR vs another brand, I bet if they saw this video they would make a decision to not walk... -

Count your blessing it was a fresh water flooding condition and not salt water, oops game over salt with electronics mix. I'm surprised the driver's door master locking system hadn't gone wacko causing all kinds of security no start issues. Years ago I ran across a 94 5 spd D1 offered for $750... -

2012 V8 Gas LR4 P0087 Low Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Problem
From what i've been told the LR4's have three fuel pumps, one the low pressure in the tank plus two high pressure pumps which are connected to a common "Y" with HP fuel to one location. Fine and dandy should one high pressure pump fail your still driving on the other high pressure pump without... -

2002 LR Disco 2 - Rough Idling and Hesitating
Wild guess failed coil pack now missing with rough idle with raw fuel burning inside the cats overheating them. Did you examine the cat's honeycomb material to see if it was straight or gobs of melted and twisted honeycomb? Running lean like a low fuel pump pressure condition or fuel pressure... -

bbyer, not to off topic destroy the original post i'll reply. Leaking LR's, not a problem just add small rotating disc valves like they added to Jeep floorboards to drain the water after river crossings. Think the Three Stooges drilling extra holes into the boat bottom to let the water out... -

I hope no offense was taken on my reply, LOL! From basic LR's of the 50's era working on them for a family friend you could roll it over into a lake then with a little time and work back up and running again in a couple hours, no biggie. Even my "old 95 D1 dinosaur" for which it had been called... -

What makes you believe that the "3's" are even still running in the always raining UK? Have you pulled every fuse after the vehicle has been shut down and read each circuit's current drain possibly excluding the engine's computer with the alarm system always pulling a load which is normal? With... -

P0089 Fuel Pressure Regulator 1 Performance
"one per cylinder" that's a new one on me. I missing something here, please explain? Like reading a LR diagnostic report of a LR behind a tow truck reporting "it has a burnt intake valve". Another new one on me building and racing engines over 55 years. Like telling customers you must only... -

P0089 Fuel Pressure Regulator 1 Performance
Should you plan on keeping your LR4 a long time (anything past warranty your way more dollars out of pocket with dealership repairs) and already became friends by first name with your local LR dealership of your liking. It would be a good idea to purchase a Factory Shop Manual on your LR4 plus... -

P0089 Fuel Pressure Regulator 1 Performance
A code scammer as posted above spitting out a number does not allow live readings in real time while your driving what the fuel rail pressures are which a different scan unit offers. Analog or digital gauges with a laptop will show you what is out of spec. A pressure gauge connected to the fuel... -

Running boards i'd have to take pictures and post as "RUPERT" is covered up at the moment plus we're having a 100+ degree heatwave. Very unusual like 25*F above our normal summer days. Add humidity it sucks. I'm staying indoors with the cats, they aren't stupid. .....~~=o&o>...... -

Support, talking about the structural design of running boards or the fact your owning a "old antique Land Rover vs the modern day high tech 5.0 Land Rover"? This when 97% of this forum is covering LR3's ( why short lived?) and LR4's . This is what I was told on another LR thread I replied on... -

Need help installing running boards on disco 1, please help
No, no, no, do not weld the running board mounting brackets to any part of the frame! All I did was add two triangle gussets, one on each side of the outboard mounting tab locations which are bent 90 degrees on the mounting plate kit going from vertical to horizontal that will bolt to the body...
