I have no idea what plugs and wires I'm running to tell you the truth. I've tried different plugs and wires that spark from a different coil pack, but nothing from this one. I'm going to the junk yard tomorrow and gonna grab the ECM off a rover and see if that makes any difference.

 

It is called an ECU most of the time. If you are getting junkyard ECU get the matching ALARM ECU as well.

 

Where's the alarm ecu located?

 

YES AS WE ALL RECENTLY LEARNED.

And its under the passenger dash. Its bolted to a metal [grey] bracket with relays attached. It is i believe a green box. Remove nut on front [10mm?] an the rear usually just brakes off.

 

We need a sticky Called: Lesson Learned where experiences such as your recent fiasco and my recent dilema with the Schraeder Valve could be summarized along with the resulting info documented.

It would develop into a list of good things to do.

Maybe include a list of things you should carry on board in event of emergency. Like replacement valve stems and a tool to replace them with.

A brake light switch or emergency small jumper with alligator clips. A paper clip will do if formed and inserted properly.

Have fun everyone. Probe with care.

 

Danny, I have to tell you that in my 5 years on here, I have never heard of a fuel valve failing. Yours is the first.

 

So my fuel valve is the FIRST such failure of that part, I highly doubt that. It may be the first that you are aware of.......

I had no idea you were tracking all failures, is everyone aware so that all failures get reported to you?

I would venture that of all the Land Rovers manufactured using that part, I sincerely doubt that mine is the first ever failure of that nature..............

The probability of that truly having been a first occurence is not in your favor......................

But if you are sure then..................Maybe you could name the problem after me: Danny Lee's First Time Occurrence of a Failed Fuel Pressure Test Valve.. WOW What an Honor.
