Fuel Injection system...

RE: Fuel Injection system...
I don't think that a person should be quick to invalidate good advice from another, especially by saying he may have problems troubleshooting a lawnmower, then saying he cant help you. It is immensely logical to spray starting fluid into the intake. Doing so will deduce whether or not you are getting fuel. If the the engine begins to actually start, then you can eliminate the possibility of a fried ECU, and start troubleshooting the fuel system only. You can also do the same thing with an old spray bottle filled with gasoline, and spray it in the throttle body while a buddy cranks the motor. One of the signs of a intelligent person, is one who solves problems by the process of elimination, and limiting your problems down to a specific area. Rather than guessing and blowing money on systems that were fully functional to begin with. I think you owe Spike an apology. It would be the adult thing to do anyways.

RE: Fuel Injection system...
I have a 98 Discovery that runs well except that when it gets hot and I turn the car off, it won't start again until it's cool. My mechanic siad there's no fuel pressure when its hot, but isn't sure if the fuel pump itself is bad, or the electrical to the fuel pump. Any comments would be much appreciated.

This is a common problem with DI's.

RE: Fuel Injection system...ECU location
If you have a left hand drive Disco i, with manual transmission 1995 model (as I have), your ECU is located under the right-side foot well kick panel, above the block of relays. It is down low enough that it "could" have gotten wet, but if it did, you probably would notice water inside the vehicle, or at least dampness.
