The ARP head studs are not the issue, nor the guy who checked them and other work. Rings are original and checked visually, stuff gets missed. That's all. Besides, can't conclude any thing until it is a fact. Still have to pull it out and test further.

Every thing is new or squeaky clean. I took the cover off and blew air in the passenger side valve cover breather hose. No 2nd breather hose, just a 2 oil baffle/oil separator in the drivers side rocker over. So I found the issue I think, passenger rear cylinder ( 7 I think ) has air just...

I am not so sure about that, the engine was cleaned and cleaned and cleaned. all the holes were checked and rechecked. When I put the ARP head studs in, I used an allen socket to put them all the way down, then backed them out, then screwed them in by hand lightly; like the directions call...

Thanks, I really do mean that. But ..... You can not compare the two and I have The certs and the degree to properly say that. In both fields .... I am not going to make this argument tho. I did put oil UV dye in the oil and ran it. The only oil leaks are the gasket it self. No oil around the...

Good guess but I doubt that, they are brand new composite gaskets from Atlantic British. Both surfaces were redone and checked before putting them on. By the book on that one. Unless a manufacture defect was happened. vary unlikely tho.

Good day, I have a strange issue. My manifold gasket is blown up and tore the two rubber gaskets on the lip the block, front and rear. Plus where its bolted down on the rear and front, the manifold gasket bolts holes are completely stretched as a result. One bolt hole is torn open. All the...

Hahaha I was sharing her car.... She was happy to put it back together and get rid of me. Have pics and video of her walking around on the frame inside of the engine bay helping putting it all back together. No, nothing got hooked up wrong. LOL

Yes i do. Its up and running. When I said it was running now, I really meant the engine. Should have made that clear. Looks like I have some dumb oil leak tho now. Plus the Crank pulley seems to have a slight wobble in it. It pretty clear when looking at the other pulleys. Also I tested and...

I know I know, but that's exactly what steps I took. May have read the electrical diagrams and made translation notes for different parts somewhere in between steps.

I am here to say that I did indeed get it up and running. This thread is now resolved. The CPS (CKS) was not installed right but ...... I can not say with out a doubt that it causes the coil packs and fuel pump to shut off. I believe it did cause a major fault. However when I got it installed...

Thanks ptschram, I just saw that in my pdf. No excuse, had the book right in front of me when it was on the stand and when that part was installed..... Are we thinking that it might be the root of the problem here? No spark, fuel pump not priming ?

Thanks for the reply, are you saying I put the spacers on the inside or between the block and the sensor? If so, that's how it is right now. I can recall doing that. dang ....... So careful to follow the Rave rebuild manual too. I think I remember seeing that section too. About to go look in the...

Good morning to all. I am having a heck of a time with this rover. 2003 Disco SE I completely rebuilt the motor and replaced many parts. Long list for now, but had two Certified mechanics help me plus followed the Big Rave and Overhaul Manuel vary closely. Was not hard if you have the rights...
