    You're transformotioning the Range Rover bit by bit. Another superb set of welding and making panels, and I wouldn't have known they were replaced. Love Liams disco impression of a rotor arm. Add that to Andys Way of The Mechanic moves and there will be one extra Range Rover on the road.

    It was starting better each and every time, so the lads are definitely making progress. It seems like one of those projects that'll look and feel like it'll never be finished then all of a sudden, you nail down the mechanical issues and get it running sweet, all the body work goes back on and the interiors being installed in a really short space of time and it's on first full test drives.

    Another informative vlog. However, I don't think the engine will run right until you sort out the exhaust. I don't know if there's one fitted, but it sounds like it's got open headers! These engines need exhaust back pressure to run properly, so you're banging your head on a brick wall until you sort that out. Hope this helps.👍 👍

    may be worth checking the distributor itself. some cars have weights in the bottom of the distributor which get flung out to change the timing of the spark as you put more throttle in. if these are seized it can cause lazy throttle response. also if you have got air leaks that may be preventing the vacuum advance on the spark as well. hope you get to the bottom of the issue soon

    • @TransformotionVR
      @TransformotionVR  6 месяцев назад

    There are a few things that come to mind, it could be old fuel in the system, also the ecu on those things is on a terrible location so I had seen several corrode over time because of water ingress. It could also be the temperature sensor that is acting up, check with a multimeter to find out if it’s on spec or just replace altogether. It could also be the stepper motor for the idle control or the throttle position sensor or its adjustment. Don’t believe it’s an ignition problem and would keep the old parts like the cap and rotor on hand since new parts can be crap, had seen several of them not last more than a few miles, would just clean the old with a brush and have handy.

    • @TransformotionVR
      @TransformotionVR  6 месяцев назад

      The fuel is new so isn't that, the only thing that hasn't been checked on the fuel system is the fuel regulator and that's been ordered. We've got a couple of air leaks so we're working on sorting them too. A few vac lines look a bit worse for wear so they'll get changed and I'm going to borrow a test light and check the ignition timing after that

    14CUX balances the mixture in essentially 2 ways AFM and Lambda. That AFM you fitted is complete junk they don't work I've proved it on my own RRC you need a genuine Lucas/Hitachi 3AM AFM it sounds like your running lean. Presumably this is a pre-catalytic converter car running the green tune resistor and no lambda sensors. The AFM signal is vital on this map and it won't ever run properly unless it's reading the correct AFM signal. If it was a cat tune running lambda sensors on a white tune resistor the AFM signal isn't as important as the fuel is adjusted via the lambda sensors. Do this before anything else otherwise your just going to be chasing false issues trust me. Another culprit is the TPS but fit a genuine AFM before you do anything else.

      You sound like you've had these issues before ha ha ill speak to the RR specialist who we got that off and see what they're saying, I think it is pre cat

      I have, it's infuriating. The 14CUX ECU receives 2 signals from the AFM an exposed and closed reading. The exposed resistor measures air passing over it and the closed reading is a separate isolated resistor that sends a reference signal for comparison with the open resistor. These values aren't that important if it has lambda sensors because the fuel map will be trimmed using the lambda sensors. If the AFM signal is lost then it will go into an extremely rich default fuel MAP. Those cheap AFM only serve a purpose on cars fitted with lambdas because they are totally inaccurate but stop the ECU going into default mode and allow the lambdas to carry on trimming the fuel map. The 14CUX has what it calls "Tune Resistors" which depending on it's age and what region the vehicle was sold in will determine what fuel map to use. A pre cat car without lambda sensors will be fitted with a green tune resistor and it's AFM is vital for setting fuel trims. I've done side by side comparisons with both original and copy AFM and whilst the idle reading is roughly the same as soon as you rev the engine the copy will under read and run extremely lean causing back firing through the intake and all manner of other issues rendering it un-drivable and sending you off on all manner of false fault finding exercises. I've been debating making a video to explain this because there isn't any information about it online but I just haven't had the time. Final note some Jaguar XJ6s from the 80s used the same Lucas/Hitachi 3AM AFM so you can widen your search on eBay a bit, it will be written on the top what type it is.

    Has that pipe with no home come off the vacuum advance on the distributer? Only asking..might explain why it die's when you open the throttle... good luck.

    Vacuum lines? Timing or crank sensor? Convert to electronic ignition?

    • @TransformotionVR
      @TransformotionVR  6 месяцев назад

      It could be vac lines, they're all a bit worse for wear, they all need replacing, could be an air leak too, the injector guys said the diaphragm in the regulator goes crap so that's next on the list

      It does have a bit of a wobble, so does the crank pulley
