just about ever day when i start up my disco i get a engine flutter and a flash of the engine light no stored codes almost like it stalls . any ideas ?

 

need tune up better gas new air filter

 

Tune up already done .. Gas maybe but doubtful .. Maybe throttle body needs clean ..

 

How about mileage, octane and tune up by brand parts and did you install new 8 mm silicone wires?
T/body should be cleaned but is not the problem.

 

Car has about 115,000 . Change spark plugs .. At time wires where good . Last time I replaced was at 60,000 miles do that may need to be changed now thought about that one .. Use 93 octane . And add land rover gas additive every other time . In a way it almost feels like the motor is wanting to lock up for a brief second ..

For engine to run, it requires the following (which I am sure you already know):
-Fuel
-Spark
-Air
See which one you are missing or not getting enough and just go in logical order. I bet you can find the problem yourself in a few hours.
Once you find out which of the above is the culprit, let us know and maybe we can help you then.
Right now........No one really knows where the problem is. It could be a hundred different things.

 

And part of "spark" is "timing"

Crank Position Sensor does not leave many codes under certain circumstances... if it fails when engine is not running (like trying to start). From RAVE:

If the CKP sensor fails while the engine is running the engine will suddenly stall, this is because the CKP sensor has no backup strategy. If this happens the ECM will produce a fault code that it can store in its memory. If the engine is not running when the CKP sensor fails, the vehicle will crank but will be unlikely to start, and no fault code will be generated. In this instance the MIL lamp will remain illuminated and the tachometer will fail to read.

 

In other words, when cranking the engine over does the check engine light stay on or shut off?
It is supposed to shut off while cranking the engine over to start it.

 

The engine light goes off after starting . But this usually happen after u start driving in the first couple minutes at low rpm .The ckp sensor was on my mind ..
