    I am SO getting these!!!

    If you put them on backwards it'll improve braking...rotate them 90 degrees and it'll help with downforce...

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    I'll see what happens after I check for spark this weekend (assuming the weather is decent) and clean the MAF etc... I'm going to try running it with the coolant temp sensor unplugged and see if that does anything. Unplugging the MAF resulted in no change in running condition so that's my next...

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    Finally found a shop that could read my codes... P0150 O2 Sensor Circuit Malfunction (Bank 2 Sensor 1) P0130 O2 Sensor Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1 Sensor 1) P0153 O2 Sensor Circuit Slow Response (Bank 2 Sensor 1) P0300 Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected P0301 Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected...

    I also unplugged my MAF and started the truck. It took a couple tries to get it to stay running but once the idle got up it was fine. It was still running rough and rich etc... so I'm not sure if that's an indication of anything.

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    Battery swapped...no change in condition. I'm due for a battery though regardless, the battery I borrowed has been in storage since October and it turned over my truck better than mine.

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    Well, I'm at wits end. It ran fine for the past few days until this morning when it started missing and sputtering again. I took it to a shop to pull the codes after work and they can't get any. The same computer was able to pull the codes off a 95 Disco a few weeks ago, but it won't read my...

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    Speak of the devil. After letting it sit for a few days (like I did the last time this problem surfaced) I started it up to check a few things and the problem has again vanished. I'm still waiting for an appointment to get my codes pulled, that may or may not shed some light on the situation...

    Critique my setup...

    How much trimming are we talking here? Cutting away the fender flares completely or more? I've already got a 2" OME HD lift and I've been looking at 255/85's aswell. I need to ditch the 7.50x16's I've been borrowing off my mom's Series I 80 inch...they are woefully inadequate for a Discovery...

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    It could be my 02's, I've had the truck 3 years and I don't know if or when they were changed before that. The cats however are only 3 years old, less than 10k on them. I've breezed through emissions twice so far, will be due again in 2012.

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    Found it...looks straightforward enough. Though I'd be using braided line from the rail to the T-block to help save the guage from undo vibration. Makes it less likely to get hit and snap off too. I just need to get a damn guage with the proper threading is all.

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    I've seen those on lots of cars, my friend has one similar on his Talon, it's just to find one for sale that's the issue. What the heck is the threading on the fuel rail bleeder valve anyways? 1/8 NPT?

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    I'm looking for some actual MAF cleaner...Canadian Tire doesn't carry it (the guys behind the counter never heard of it, surprise surprise)...so I will check one of the smaller parts shops on Tuesday when they are open again. I don't trust myself to go near a $1400 part with anything but what's...

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    I should add, after some more part searching and looking through my RAVE...apparently it was the coolant temperature transmitter than I changed. When I went looking for coolant sensors at rovers north that one popped up and I figured that was it. So should I order the other $80 sensor or do...

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    Here we go again... Whatever my problem was, it went away on it's own a few days after starting this thread. It's back. I had ordered a new Coolant Temperature Sensor at the time and held off installing it incase the problem did return so I'd know if that was the issue. Well I just put the...

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    I just checked my antifreeze and my oil. The coolant smells like...errr...coolant I guess. The oil however smells like gas, so there is definitely too much getting into atleast one cylinder.

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    The wires are just over 2 years old...however if I put 3000 km a year on the truck I'm doing good. Plug wires up here are special order and I can't even order them until Tuesday so I'll see what else I can learn before then.

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    Don't see any leaks around the rail, the smell of gas seems to be only coming from the tailpipe. If I can I will have a buddy check it for me tomorrow while I start the truck...I don't like to have it running for more than a minute though with the amount of shit coming out of the exhaust. I was...

    97 D1, runs rough, gas smell, smoking exhaust.

    Been about a week now since my D1 starting to run rough on me, it sounded like one or more cylinders were not firing. It does so intermittently. One trip to work it may run fine, another it will run rough and smell of gas, sometimes my CE light will come on and off aswell when it really starts...

    interiment engine light 97 D1

    Mine will go on and off for periods from a few weeks to a few months. It's most likely a misfire or 02 sensor as the truck doesn't seem to run any different either way. I haven't been able to pull codes as the OBD2 I have access to won't read the Discovery and I can't be arsed to spend the $50...

    Rover fairy helped a bit!

    Head gasket would be my guess...but you won't truly know if that's the only issue until you start pulling it apart.
