Thread: Disco 1 3.9 injectors

no worries....those were just on the first page of search i know there is more but just put those up to start you off!

if its winding over and not firing i cannot see how it would be the starter?

put a fuel pressure gauge after the pressure regulator at the end of the fuel rail and see how much pressure there is at the rail/injectors.
if the reg gets blocked up it can drop pressure at the injectors resulting in the fuel not being atomized in the cylinders.
if you have replaced all those items and you have spark at the plugs (good strong white spark) and your timing is correct then fuel is the next step.

OK but before mine stopped turning over it did this.....don't listen to me then andy.

yourse is also diesel and not petrol

and..are the starters not the same for both models then?

EDIT: actually I don't think they are the same...but any how I dont see what that has to do with it when I have posted a link to someone with starter problems in a V8

Missed the edit, haha.

Anyway Andy like I said don't listen to me....try what phil said.

I was only talking from my own personal experience....

FWIW, I had these same starting problems and ended up replacing the injectors. Solved the issue.
I bought recoed ones of EBAY.
