Looking back through this thread there was a lot of information, so I decided to compile it for anyone who may need it.
Initial Problem: Purchased the 1998 Discovery for $600, spark was intermittent and it would not start (engine turned over).
Discovered fuse blown in the engine...

Think I found a solution. I am going to glue a tab and see if it fixes it. If it does I have a friend that can weld it. I will let you know if that fixes my issues.
Last night I noticed coils for 8&5, and 3&2 cut out. 6&1, and 4&7 do not. I swaped both sets and the problem did NOT follow the coil. It still cut out on 8&5 and 3&2. I believe the high idle is from swapping the ECU, I read were it has to be reset for the throttle sensor. The missing is what has...
Cleaned the intake, IAC, but it still idles high. I did figure out it cuts out badly when cold and will backfire out the exhaust if you rev the motor. Once it warms up the miss is much less and it is drivable. I took it down the highway and it ran good, but if you floor it would stumble at...
DISCO MIKE HELP!!!! When I put a timing light on the plugs everything fires great until you press the throttle. The light will blink off for a second or two like it looses power? Any idea what to do next? One important part is that it will not run with the fuel temp switch plugged...

Ok I installed the Cam Sensor and it fired up but it idles great with no miss. I took it for a ride and quickly realized it cuts out going up a hill or trying to accelerate. When I got back home I realized I had left the fuel pressure sensor plug unplugged. (A guy on another forum told me to...
I changed spark plugs and got it to fire up. It ran terrible like before back firing and hesitant on the throttle. Shut it off and it won't crank again. It smoked terribly as well like it wasn't burning all the gas. You still think it is computor?
Ok I did a little research and I did not test the crank sensor properly. I didn't realize it is AC not DC. I retested with AC and it read 1.08 to 1.24 so it is working. Now what?
