Hello All.

I found that my trigger wheel was 2 degrees out, so I adjusted for this in the MJ. Then I set the cranking advance to 10.

The static of the dizzy was set to 8, and it used to start on gas 99.99 of the time without backfire. On EDIS and MJ, it just doesn't want to start when cold on lpg ...

Hello RR.

Thanks for the reply. I will double check the circuit I built and make sure I have all the diodes around the correct way. So I can use both the zener and the stock resister at the same time?

The car runs perfectly when attached to EDIS only. It runs fine on both petrol and gas, at a rock ...

I spent this weekend finishing the wiring and making a mount for the coil packs.

The engine started perfecting first turn of the key. When the engine is warm, I have found that i get quite of a log of backfires on LPG when cranking. This has led to a few blown off hoses.

I set the cranking ...

Thanks for the reply.

I found that diagram on the net, and I wasn't entirely sure if the line coming from PIN1 to the coil, was to the -ve or +ve side of the coil, because it appears the same line comes from the ignition switch. Which I assumed was +ve.

So the -ve feed from the coil, goes through ...

So today I spent a go few hours roughing in the wiring for the EDIS and Megajolt. I have it roughly installed with vacuum, pip, saw and power going into the cabin for the MJ and the EDIS just has power and the VR sensor. Basically everything but spark.

I plugged the laptop in and took the bus for ...

Hello,

When I originally posted about the megajolt. I was planning on installing it on the 3.9 Disco. However,now I am installing it on the 3.5 RRC, with the flapper injection. So now I have a question.

Does the Flapper injection ECU require the signal from the -ve on the coil. I can see a ...

Ok.. I wound up drilling a hole in a piece of flat bar. I then bolted it onto the water pump pulley using one of the 3 existing bolts on the face of the pulley. It was surprisingly easy once I had a way of holding the water pump still. I am going to put in thermo fans now the viscous fan is off. I ...

Well I now have all the kit i need, and I even built a bench test of the megajolt, which was a great success. I had the trigger wheel mounted in a variable speed drill, and the EDIS attached to one coil pack. Everything worked as expected.

I have started to push on, and started on removing the ...

Ok. Another quick question.

I understand that the 1N4001 or 1N4004 are suitable diode for the coil to ECU driver.

However all I have been able to find is that a 12 - 18v or 15-18v Zener diode, does the zener have more indentifing number?

Ok.. EDIT that... I found part number BZX85C15 to ...

Except I have one question which I am hoping is a stupid one.

If the MJ with MAP sensor is powered up on a bench and connected to my computer. What should the Load be measuring. My unit is reading 100Kpa with no vacuum applied... If I attach a ...

Hey Guys,

Thanks very much for the replies. I am still yet to find anyone else with maps they can help me with. So it would be great if you could post a screenshot of your working petrol map.

Hopefully the MJ kit should arive at the end of this week or next and the project can be soon.

John.

Hello All,

Is anyone using a megajolt on their rover 3.9V8?

I am after a map for both Petrol and LPG, that is known to be good.

I will be running MAP and not TPS.

Rdgs,

Worn Steering box symptoms, What might they be?

Hello All,

I was hoping someone could shed some light on this subject for me. I have recently acquired a 89 RR, and I have noticed that the steering is a bit loose or vague. I know this is not just another Land Rover quirk. It is too dangerous to put up with.

When driving at high speeds it is more ...

I have thought about doing up the 2 door. Thing, is I wouldn't mind it being able to be a everyday cruiser as well. The 2 door is a bit rough inside, wouldn't mind having a few mod cons. Like a heater that does vibrate the dash off when you turn the fan on.

I have a 81 2 door and I thinking of getting a newer rangie with the aim of spending dollars over time to set it up as a good looking, all purpose 4wd. I am in the mind that the 81 is getting too old to spend dollars on.
