SV: [ROVERNET - UK] P6B - Removing rear brakes

[jan.tillberg at sqc.se]

Hi there!
I'm new to the Rovernet and hope for some answers.

I'm inserting a Range Rover 3.5  EFI engine in my 3500 from 73. Most =
things fits. I have modified the linking for the accelator and the =
waterpump pulley. There are some electric connections I can't sort out =
really though. For instance: I think that the distributor has the =
ignition amplifier attached to it and not as a separate unit. There are =
two leads from a soccet, black/white and white. I think that the =
black/white goes straight to the coil. But where does the white go?. =
Should it be connected to the ECU-unit directly or via som other device?

There is a four-flatpin socket that looks like a relay should be =
attached. It has a white, a white/black, a black and a white/blue lead. =
It 's comes out of the harness approx at the same place as the coolant =
temperature sensor. Could it be the wiring for the fuel shut off relay? =
Where does the blue/white lead from this soccet go? Its approx 6" long =
and have a female flat pin connection. (what do you call the flat pins =
by the way?).

Please help me get my Car on the road again!

Thank you to everyone who responded to my initial post of many weeks =
ago. I
have finally got around to start and decided to go with Paul Smith's =
advice
and disconnect the half shafts so I can get more room. I won't drop the =
diff
as space is very limited.

My question is this; does anyone have good ideas for ways to stop the =
disc
from revolving so I can remove the holding bolts. I notice from the =
Manual
these bolts are tightened to 85 lb ft!! This will make it even harder to
remove.

All suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Hi all.

Just a little late addition to this post...

Vern is right, it's hard to find a thin walled socket. I ground my 1 =20
1/8" "thin wall socket"  down to half its original thickness on my =20
bench grinder, then it did the trick nicely. I did the job without =20
dropping the diff. Thanks to all the helpful advice given here, I =20
think I'll try dropping it next time, for the fun of it!
