What is the likelihood that my original 4.2L with 189k milesjumped a tooth on the timing chain? I’ve read ALL the history of this engine,which mainly speaks of the dropped cyl liners, leaking head gaskets and camwear, but I can’t recall reading about timing chain jumping. Truck has been purring...

Hello all! This is my first forum to ever join, and I’m hoping to connect with and learn from as many fellow newbies/enthusiasts as possible. I made my way here, bc I have had to teach myself how to do any & everything on/with cars with this truck, and Of coarse it had to be a RR. Go figure...

As the title suggests, is anyone able to explain how to access the fuel filter? I believe it's basically part of the fuel pump and I have a replacement one already. I thought there might have been an access point under the rear seats but there isn't. I'm thinking I will probably end up having to...

So I drove my 06 L322 SC (365,000km) to the corner store a few days ago. 10 minute drive. Ran good as always. Shut it off and went inside for 2 minutes. When I started it to leave, a HUGE amount of smoke came out the exhaust, enough that it made a pretty big cloud and took a minute to...

Hi! I recently bought this range rover and on the drive home, the temperature started to rise. I pulled over, the overflow tank was bubbling (which, I'm assuming most would say head gasket), but everything else seems normal. Good power, no hesitation when it starts, no signs of coolant in...

Hi, I've been lurking here for a while and have been wanting to get offroad with my range. I went last weekend up to the Sierra Pelona Trail near me and had a blast. It was so exhilarating that I want to do more and have more capability. To that end I've been considering tire upgrades and also...

I looked guys, everywhere, and cannot find a description of the procedure for adjusting the timing on my 4.2L. Any description at all merely says“Use a timing light and aim it at the harmonic balancer”.DUH, I get that, I can do that all day, but WHAT lines do I line up with thefixed (plate...

Calling all 95 RRC owners - I am looking to check the timing on my truck. Can somebody describe, or show me a photo of what the timing marks look like on a 95 RRC? From what I am seeing online the 95 is different than other models, and my balancer does not seem to have any markings like you...

Having great difficulty in removing the alternator from this 2008 Supercharged 4.2L. The serpentine belt is off and the three retention bolts are out but there seems to be insufficient room to maneuver the alternator out of position. Any trick to removing this unit? Anything else need to come...

Ok, while diagnosing a faulty amplifier module, I discovered axial play in this distributor shaft. When I replaced the rotor last September I didn't have any issues, but this time it seems the shaft lifted slightly allowing the advance springs to disengage, or possibly the magical plastic...

What do I need to swap a gems 4.6L into a 1994 Range Rover LWB. Other than what I think is obvious. Oil pan, intake manifold, plenum, exhaust manifolds and front timing cover. Thanks. Anyone have a good write up.

I just rebuilt the top end on my 4.2L. I haven't even driven it. I just started it and just checked the oil. Its a milkshake again. I feel like this is a larger problem then rebuilding the top of the engine. It turns over freely, and it isn't making any weird noises. Any suggestions. I'm...

Hey I have a World SourceOne battery in my L322. Is it a good battery, is battery model number 49MF the correct model? I've contacted the company but they're not very friendly or forthcoming with information...it's been a real task. Rob

All the pieces fell together and I pulled the trigger. I now have my winter project lined up and I could not be happier. I'm in such a great mood over my purchase that I fed my children two scoops of ice cream and two chocolate chip cookies for breakfast. I officially locked in father of the...
