I have a 2000 Decovery 2 118,000 miles. The engine will die like you turned the key off. I a few min. it starts right up. It may do it again in a few miles or in a few days. HELP!!

 

When it dies, pop you hood and find what looks like a tire valve on a silver tube by your intake. The silver tube will be your fuel line and connects to your injectors. If fuel squirts out, it eliminates 50% of your problem...

 

You can't do it on a D2.

What have you checked so far, do you have spark??

 

I have not had time to check much. Iwas lookong for fuel the filter. I do not have a book yet, but what I though was it is in frount of the tank on the frame rail right side. But I went to NAPA and the filter they showed did not look anything like what I was looking at. I was told today it may bet behine the letf frount wheel. I'll look to night. Also told it may be crank sensor.

 

D2's don't have fuel filters.
Is the v/c gasket on the drivers side leaking, do you have a chack engine light on?
Sounds like a crank sensor.

 

Yes I do have a check engine light and I have chased it for weeks. I do know I need a new O2 sensor but which one is a wag. I just started it and it ran for about 15 min. then died, I checked and no spark to it plugs.

 

What is a V/C gasket? That may be a dumb ? I'm new to LR's

 

Normally this is referring to a Valve Cover gasket.

 

I knew it would be a dumb question when I got the answer. Thank you. I'm not getting many oil around them but I'll checkthe back.
There is some oilon the lower part of the engine. And no spark when motor dies,when it cools it starts, also there is dirt and oil around the crank sensor I'm going to clean it as much as I can andsee if that helps. Plus go but a code reader! I see I'll need it wiht LR's.

 

How long have you had this, when do you plan to go thru and real service and tune this truck, your truck, by mileage is past do for 4 02 sensors, although you haven't caused this particular problem.
What are the exact fault codes that took you weeks to find?
Is there oil leaking from the drivers v/c gasket, UPS, already asked that and didn't get a reply.
When you get around to checking and getting me the information I asked for, I'll tell you what is most likely wrong with your truck.
