I'm new to the Land Rover world, just bought my SE7 Discovery last week. Ran great until this morning.

Tried to start it, she cranks like normal and almost starts. Engine hits 1,000 rpm for about 2 seconds and she sputters out. Had another guy listen by the tank, he can't hear the fuel pump.

Here's the kicker - yesterday I put a scanner on it (service engine light has been on since I bought it). It read the following:

Crankshaft Position Sensor A Circuit (Engine)
Evaporative Emission System Leak Detected (Engine)
Manufacturing Control (AT)

So I'm wondering if I have a bad fuel pump, or if the crank sensor somehow shuts off the fuel pump.

Where do I go from here? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

 

Bad crank sensor means no spark. Probably your culprit.
You might try posting your questions in the D2 forum instead of the general help -- likely to get more eyes on thiem.
