Update on the Stranded Disco II
The GoodYear shop called. Said it is getting fuel to the engine, but they don't have the test equipment to test it any further and recommended taking it to the "Range Rover Dealer".
So, my truck that will turn over and supposedly getting fuel but won't start is still stuck at GoodYear.
I think I'm going to leave it there for a few days until hopefully I can get a few more ideas from you guysabout what to try next.
Also, what'sthe requirement for towing a 2000 DII, orusing a dolly -ifit comes to that?
Mike, I didn't want to call you with it being Christmas.
Merry Christmas to everyone BTW!

RE: Update on the Stranded Disco II
The fault codes that I had for the previous month or so were:
P0440- Evap Emiss. Control Sys. Malf.
P1590- Manf. Control Veh. Spd Idle Spd Control Aux inputs
P0135- 02 Sensor Heater Malf. (bank 1, sensor1)
but I cleared those codesearlier in the weekand they were not on at the time my truck died andhave not come back on...yet.
I'm thinking at this point I am going to order a crank sensor andsee if it starts then. The local Olympus Auto doesnt have one so I guess I'll have toorder one from Atlantic British.
BTW, when I pulled my spark plug to make sure I was getting fire it did not look like much of a spark, but I did see a spark and it was daytime with plenty of light. Should the spark have been more intense and could it be I am just not getting enough spark to fire it up? The engine still turns over, it's just not starting at all.
