    Driveability issues

    Would have been good if you had mentioned that earlier. The older Rovers per prone to getting misfire codes, all on the same bank and we usually found a vaccum leak at the manifold, a power valve issue, might do a Google search for a Rover fault 147.

    Again, how many mikes on it? Have you even pulled the 1,3,5 plugs?

    Driveability issues

    On some Rover's there have been problems after cleaning a MAF. Why are you cleaning your t/body so frequently? You need to install so new plugs to get rid of those misfire codes.

    Give us the tranny code, can't help you without. Never clean a MAF without a code indicating it is a problem, How many miles on it and when it was last tuned?

    Bigger replacement AGM battery

    Can't tell you if the 49 is the correct size or not, but you might want to consider buying the Sears marine platium, I believe, it will easily match up to the quality of yhr odyssey for aa lot less money. Just a thought.

    Hello, to all. An need some advice on engine refresh.

    I have a lot to do and to keep going back and forth with you isn't in my time frame. If you want help PM me you number or quit wasting both of our times.

    Hello, to all. An need some advice on engine refresh.

    Again, sounds like you are still going in the wrong direction. If you don't want help, that fine but you are way off track.

    Hello, to all. An need some advice on engine refresh.

    Might want to stop throwing parts at it till you actually find the cause of the tick.If it is a lifter, you must replace the cam also due to a soft alloy used by Rover. You may have a slipped liner instead of a valve train tick. I would be glad to walk you thru what to check, where to buy your...

    Camshaft position sensor

    Might want to double check that out, don't believe you have 2 cam shaft position sensors, what fault code are you getting?
  20. Disco Mike

    What should I do with this engine?

    May be cheaper and quicker to throw in a used engine, if the vehicle is worth it and the owner decides to start maintaning it.

    Low oil light on start

    What year is your truck? At your mileage I would replace the oil pump using a kit, replace the timing chain and gears, new 180 degree t/stat. There should be no reason to worry about the rest of the engine as long as there is no upper engine clicking. You might want to replace the o-ring for the...

    PO 171 & 174 Codes (Lean Banks 1 & 2)

    You have been guessing too much, spending money you didn't need to. Your cats weren't causing this no codes showing. The MAF didn't throw a code. You you have a real time scanner, if so read the 02 signals and get back to us.

    park safety switch wire

    Can't help you with the wires but would like to ask why you want to install a remote starter? If it is because it is cold out, the worse thing you can do to a Disco is cold start it and let it idle till it is nice and warm inside. Your engine runs extremely rich which cause a lot of carbon build...
