Disco II engine cuts off
While out in the woods last Saturday, theT connector for the upper radiator hose cracked and left me high and dry. I shut the vehicle down before it got hot. Got it repaired and filled back up with anti-freeze, only to have the engine cut out shortly after it gets to operating temperature. It is notoverheating, just normal temp. You can let it cool down, and it fires right up for about 10 minutes and dies. If you pull the spark plug cables after it dies, there is no fire. I noticed looking it over that at some point Land Rover disconnected and removed the linesfrom the plasticoverflow tank to the throttle body, but it looks like it's been that way for quite awhile. It seems to run perfectly, but then shuts off. There isno hesitation or "trying to run". It just instantly dies. I'm looking at 100 miles of towing if I can't figure it out! Any thoughts? Thanks!!
