Default Help wanted please.... wont idle!

Ill tell u the story so i dont get asked daft question's..
I have a 4.0 P38 was SORN for about 7 months and hadnt been sarted. Decided to take for test. Which it Passed a little high on emmisions but passed... Drove if for a good couple of weeks.. then is started not wanting to start when cold then when it did it wouldnt idle for a long period of time! So got some one to have a look he plugged it in. It cam up cam sensor. NSC500610 (err2261 i think) search could not find one anywhere Landrover dont have it stock!! and didnt really know where it was on the car to check it!. Anyway found a cam sensor (err6169) wrong plug!... But when i found out where it was i look at mine it had been snagged on the belt or cam and the wire was split sp i solderd it up! i worked fine but is started so not want to start cutting out when under braking and some times just when driving-but not when accelarating!... ive checked it and it seems fine!
Sorry to write all this but i just wanted to explane so as to no confusion!
Thankyou John

I question it is the cam sensor, go get the codes read again and get back to us with the 4 digit fault code number

134 is not a cam sensor fault, it is an 02 circuit malfunction for bank 1 sensor 1, so quit looking for a cam sensor.

With that attitude you won't be getting any help from me.
After you follow some bad information, replace a few expensive no needed parts, maybe you will be more interested in getting help with out the BIG MOUTH.
