Default 02 Freelander Engine Problems

On my car with 50k miles. I took the rear head apart and had it resurfaced. I put everything back together and now my car is shaking. I am not getting any power to injectors 1 and 3. But I did not even touch anything with that side. Also when the check engine light is on I am not getting any pulse from the injectors. I am getting a misfire code and when I clear the code I get some pulse. I tried new injectors and that didn't help.

Any suggestions?

ok it looks like my timing was off.... When i redid the timing and tried to turn the belt one full turn it gets stuck. I'm reading the timing belt guide and it looks like i need a Landrover camshaft tool LRT-12-175 one for the left and one for the right. $225 each. Do you guys know if its possible to do the timing belt without this tool. Because it's getting stuck as i turn it.

if it is getting stuck as you turn it I suspect the timing was off to begin with and bent a valve.

Does it make lots of noise?

And you need the timing belt tool to do the job. Why didn't you check directions instead of taking it apart.

Common sense is get all the directions and tools before doing the job. If you don't and you didn't even realize that a timing belt needed timing then its obvious you shouldn't even be working on the vehicle. You will be lucky if the motor isn't blown after being that stupid.

No its not making lots of noise. I tried it without the tool because i read another guide that says you can do it without the tool. Now do i need to get 2 of those tools or is one suffice?

Ok so i replaced both heads with reman's. Still got some ticking noise...I thought it was the lifters...Replaced those... Still ticking.... Now i hear the ticking from inside the upper intake manifold. I took it apart and i see a long stem with gears? And it has this number written on it

2900303459


But i was told by land rover the upper intake manifold is not serviceable and you have to buy the entire thing. $1200 for the damn thing.

Is it possible to find the part somewhere or anyone know the name of this part.
Its a long brown stem with 3 tiny ***** sticking out on each side.
