Thread: 95 Disco V8i struggling to accelerate, "bucks" a bit when taking off.

Sounds like it may be a duff TPS. You can measure the resistance on these with a digital multimeter. New improved versions are available from ACT, Mark Adams and RPI also sell these.

Hello. You may by now have solved your fault. However, I have a 95 DI V8 which had a similar intermittent condition, which I called a fibrillated spasmatic fault. It ended being the Throttle Control sensor. These are very costly to replace, worth more than the truck itself. To repair I carefully removed the back with a narrow fret saw and carefully picked out the resin packing to expose the wiring that had partially dislodged itself. I resoldered the wires (micro surgery), thus avoided having to enter the front side of he sensor. I then reattached the back with gasket paste. The D1 runs well.
