The fault apparently was a knackered Cam Shaft sensor, as reported by the
ECU.  The sensor has been replaced and the ECU is now clear.
Total cost of £146 inc vat and diagnostic.

acquire air con compressor and mounting bracket and alternator and
mounting bracket from a 3.5 V8 Range Rover. What I really need is a
diagram or photo showing the layout of these components to ensure

I am trying to get my Series 2a back on the road after a 2 year lay off. All
seems fine except the clutch operation. The pedal feels soft (compared to my
