Did I cause this?
I am wondering if I caused this problem? A couple of tanks ago, I put reg. 87 in (needed gas asap; couldn't fine a station with 93) Well, since everything seemed to be ok, no immediate CEL or bad starting, nothing ran just as smooth as with 93 gas. I put a few more tanks of the reg. 87 in. Now, after switching back to 93, I have a few codes poping up.
the codes are: P0154 (o2 pass. #1) P1300 (fuel sys. or miss fire) P0308 and P0302 (miss-fires in #2/8 cyl. So, I'm wondering if running the 87 gas has caused this problem or is this just something that has happened... thanks again. |
And you had to ask????????????????????????
How many miles on your truck and has it ever been tune along with wires? You are easily loosing 2 MPH plus a huge amount of low end torque, much lee carboning up your engine. |
The truck is a 2000 with 136k and I believe at 132k land rover of greenville, sc. did a tune up on her.

I miss spoke; truck did not have tune up @ 132k. unknown when was done last. |
see mikes 60k service in the HOW TO section and use 93 or 91 gas from now on.

I'm not sure if just a few tanks of regular would give you misfires and kill an O2 sensor. When you had the tuneup did they do the wires?
|
I doubt the low-octane gas was the only thing responsible... there are so many Disco's running around with people driving them who don't know the need 90 or better...
definitely could have been a contributing factor but i'd look to your plugs and wires first |
he just needs a tune up, and most likely wires and plugs.
