I was 22 when I was tboned by a guy that ran a stop sign. Impact was so hard the whiplash messed my back up so bad it’s changed my life. The guy drove away, I didn’t think he would cause his car was so messed up. Well long story short, cops could t find him even tho I had the first three of his plate and many parts to his car. So I hired Morgan and Morgan they reassured me they would find him and make it right with all my bills that accrued from the hospital and physical therapy….poor communication and 6 months later I found out they didn’t do anything except go after my uninsured motorist insurance from my ins company…took 7k for them and left me with 3k and my rates went up and I was left with a totaled car and 15k in hospital bills.

My friend and I changed the fuel injectors on my neighbors supercharged Jaguar. It took almost 2 days of driving for the cats to finally clear up and quit smoking.

[@lindsaymerritt975]

Well done. I’d love to own that car! 😊

[@chomper6930]

I did not have that issue when I changed mine on a 2005 XJR. Also I have had very few issues with my 2013 Range Rover HSE. Its heavy on gas but I do not commute in it. The XJR was amazingly good with fuel economy. I did have a water/meth injection system on it.

[@reddyuda]

Now that you got the fuel system cleaned up I would highly recommend replacing the upstream O2 sensors. They are probably super fouled, and on supercharged or turbo vehicles I would say the service life on them is about 80k miles before needing new ones.

[@mytester6208]

o2 sensors def. also would get a chinese clone cable (they come with original jlr software too :) ) do proper code/diag! there is unbelieveable amount of different proper info in the jlr cable/soft. generic obd devices cant access certain important codes/areas!

Pretty sure the heavy smoking is because the ECM had cranked down the long term fuel delivery because of the rich reading form the senor on the exhaust and now when the injectors actualy works the short term compensation have to adjust the delivery untill long term gets to a normal level again.

[@LugW0rm]

I agree, I think resetting the system by reconnecting the battery might have helped here. Assuming that resets the ECU on a land rover, not sure.

[@stampedetrail2003]

I was like, oh man another head gasket / cracked block.

[@michaelstrongbow2336]

Good job on the fuel injectors, I was rooting for ya. I wonder if you turned the fuel rail bolts out of the head just enough to place a washer or a thin piece of steel over the bolt holes on the head. Keep the fuel rail attached to the injectors and turn the bolts evenly to back out all injectors on that rail at once? So, back out the first bolt on the fuel rail just enough to slide a washer in, the washer hole is too small for the bolt to pass through and it's a durable washer. Then turn the fuel rail bolt clockwise like you're going to tighten the fuel rail back to the head. Repeat this for all bolts, get them snug. Then start torquing them like you would a cam shaft to evenly pull out all injectors on that rail. The fuel rail looked like aluminum so it might take the force. IDK I use this technique to widen the clasp on a steering knuckle to fit a new strut base in sometimes. Merry Christmas!

If that's true, it sounds like the fuel quality is absolute rubbish. One of my old 4 wheel drives used to do that too but to clean it's act up I used to put 50/50 Avgas & 95 fuel in it and what a difference that made. Woke it up and cleaned out it's whole system even the tail pipe was clean after that. I'd do the fuel mix thing every year or so. Still got the vehicle 26 years later & still a good rig.

I always like what Land Rover dealerships would do. Back in the late '80s and early '90s each dealership had challenges right on their property so you could feel and learn how to take it off road. They had a fake hill they had some rocks then they had one where you put the front tire on and move up slowly and you could see how much flex was built in to the vehicle. I know there's something else they had cannot think of it off the top of my head. I absolutely love the one that you are working on now. They really up their game on interior. Look forward to watching your next video. I hope you have a great holiday.

Dude, don’t listen to anybody. I am a fan of them also. I bought my LR three probably eight years ago and I love it. Like you, I fix my own vehicle and save myself probably tens of thousands of dollars doing so. Considering that most garages want $500 to replace $50 spark plugs. That take 10 minutes and while I’m at it I always replace my ignition coils at the same time. The point being that, as I said in another post… If you love these vehicles, they are a labor of love. But when they are running good, there is nothing else on the road like them. The air shocks in mine are heavenly. You don’t feel any bump on the road. It is the smoothest running vehicle I’ve ever felt Not to mention the 15 speaker surround sound system in it. If you love these vehicles, then you’re going to be willing to work on them to keep them running well. If you can’t bring yourself to go under the hood, then you’re going to spend tens of thousands of dollars fixing $1000 worth of parts that you could replace yourself in minutes, if not an hour or so. So keep enjoying it, like I enjoy mine. The naysayers, maybe they had some horrible experiences with theirs… And maybe, they took them to a garage and probably almost passed out at what they wanted to charge them to fix the stupidest and easiest of things. Hope you had a merry Christmas and have a wonderful new year.

DO NOT TAKE THE CAP OFF THE INJECTORS BEFORE INSTALLATION, The teflon seal starts to expand once the cap is removed, which is how it seals itself to the cylinder head, you have about a 5-15 minute window to install the injector once the cap is removed

[@brettriddick7250]

There is a seal tool part number JLR9899. Removal of teflon seal makes no difference, the tool is designed to be used in a two stage procedure, once performed you have 10 minutes to seat the injectors and rail per JLR procedure.

I don't understand this comment. The cap on the tip doesn't cover the teflon seal. The teflon seal is installed, and I didn't touch them. There is no install window. There is a tool to install NEW teflon seals on old injectors; the only way I could've removed these would've been to cut them off; this is how stupid information spreads.

@@Samcrac This was my bad, most GDI engine injectors have the cap going over the seal to keep the injector seal compressed until installation, this is the case with the N54 injectors for instance, I thought I saw the same here.

The thing with these "fake" injectors is that they are probably from the same factory the real ones came from, but simply failed testing or were binned in a worse performing selection.

So my guess here is there's no a great demand for big thirsty cars, and those that do want one don't want it in white.

Great video, Worth changing the oil again after it ran so rich, a lot of that extra fuel would have gone into the sump.

I don’t dislike Range Rovers as I can appreciate how good they are ‘when’ they work. However as an engineer I’m appalled by the quality which still hasn’t been addressed after many years. I think I’ll just stick with my Landcruiser

[@scottnathanphoto]

It's a shame the Brits after 100 years, still haven't been able to make a dependable car.

[@ianwheat1577]

That's why us Brits drive Toyotas send the crap overseas

They sell ALL of their products at a premium price. They have no reason to make them any better since their customers lease them. I don't know about repeat customers, but they still continue to sell without any adverse effect on their volume.

even a blind chicken finds a grain. congrats on your ONE successful land rover rebuild.

Over here in Europe an indigenous wisdom is that everybody needs at least two Range/Landrovers; one to drive while you repair the other one. Happy holidays Sam...!!

[@alanottley]

I have enjoyed your Range Rover videos. You got a killer deal with the white Autobiography - awesome vehicle. I am a long term Rover owner and mine have been pretty much trouble free. Love them!

[@DScaglione.]

Again, you put time, energy and $ into letting us know how we can save $ Thanks Sam! God Bless 😎

So did @Samcrac fix the smoking issue or not?

[@marcoserbach3848]

Yes sir, it's normal just need some driving time to clear the cats and smoke goes away.

Agree, it wasn't super clear if it was resolved or not...

I 've heard that Rover outsourced their R&D to a competitor.

Thank you Sam for another ace video and a with a pleasing outcome. I find myself wanting a Range Rover; I'm a Brit but I've never had one - it's taken an American to change my mind. Great channel with interesting cars, keep them coming. All the best for 2023.

I love seeing you making videos on land rovers inspite of their unreliability. Please keep the good work going. Also consider buying the new defender and make videos on it.

[@wirenut003]

Good job I was thinking the same thing the old stuff was laying in the exhaust system and cat had to burn off. Great truck but not cheap even to fix yourself.
