ABS Shuttle Valve Swap
I hope someone can help me here... I need to replace the shuttle valve on the bottom of the ABS modulator, and based on Joey's recommendations, I should not remove the brake lines from the modulator, because of the labor it takes to ensure the air is completely removed from the brake system...- jrichards64

Disco II MAF Question
Well, I completed the job of changing the wires and putting everything back together, and I must say, it runs very well now, but what a freaking PITA! However, the Service Engine Soon light is still on. :mad: Do you think I need to have it cleared? To review, I have installed a new MAF, Air...- jrichards64

Shuttle Valve Question
Shuttle Valve Replacement Dumb Question I have the 3 amigos issue as well, and have already replaced the ABS relay, and cleaned the ABS sensors to try and get rid of them, but to no avail. The next step is to replace the shuttle valve, as this is the next least expensive fix. My DUMB question...- jrichards64

Disco II MAF Question
Plugs and wires Joey, Thanks again for the response. I used the Bosch 4002 spark plugs, and I did NOT replace the wires. Would you recommend replacing the wires now? If so, I've seen you've recommended the Magnacore wires. Any particular model number for those, or just go with whatever the...- jrichards64

Disco II MAF Question
Maf Joey, It's been a couple of weeks and the Service Engine Soon light is still lit, and the vehicle still runs pretty roughly. I get a slight hesitation at times when I start the vehicle, or when I accelerate from a stop. Any ideas? Or is it time to bite the bullet and let a professional...- jrichards64

Disco II MAF Question
Maf Joey, thanks again, you are the best! To give you a little history; in mid-December I performed a tune-up where I installed new spark plugs and a new air filter. At the time I performed the tune-up, the Service Engine Soon light was one, and you suggested I pull out the MAF and clean it...- jrichards64

Disco II Tune-up Procedure
OBDII Scanner Joey, I just called the place who pulled the ABS codes, and they said they used the OBDII scanner to get them. So, what's next? Take it to the LR dealership, bend over and grab my ankles and pay $$$? What do you recommend? Thanks!- jrichards64

Disco II Tune-up Procedure
ABS Update Joey, Thanks again! I got a big hammer, but without damaging the rotor, I was able to remove it. I cleaned the ABS sensors, but the 3 amigos are still glaring at me. I think the next step in troubleshooting this is replacing the shuttle valve? Is that the order in which you would...- jrichards64

As I discussed in a earlier thread, my 2000 Disco II has the dreaded 3-amigos issue. Joey was kind enough to recommend cleaning the ABS sensors, which I am in the process of completing. I remembered I had the codes pulled a couple of weeks ago, and the code relevant to this issue is as follows...- jrichards64

Disco II Tune-up Procedure
Tune up progress Thanks again, Joey, for your tips, and you were just about spot on regarding the amount of time it would take to perform the tune-up. I was able to change plugs, clean the MAF, and install a new air filter in just about 2 hours. I started it up, and the Service Engine Soon...- jrichards64
