New owner of an older discovery II (1999 4.0l with 197k).
I have had this rig for about 6000 miles. I had the entire brake system replaced (all if it) and a new serp belt. Ran like a dream up until last week. I will break it down in a timeline.
I have checked inertia switch, and no change. Where do I start?
I love this truck... Its was purchased for wheeling and became my daily driver out in the Pacific Northwest.

- oil change (noticed he put 10-30w). about 50 miles and a day later the truck started to lose power, as if i were pulling a trailer.
- my brother replaced a bit of the new oil with a Lucas oil product; gave some better performance for 100 miles or so but still felt heavy...
- used a Lucas deep clean with premium fill up (only use premium as did original owner), gained better performance for 100 miles or so.
- started rough 3 days ago and took longer to settle the idle. when pulled away the green M&S indicator light flashed. i restarted and all was okay other than "heavy" feeling
- the following day, the same issue with M&S light but after restarting and driving 20 miles, the Service Engine Soon light flashed, became constant for a couple miles then started flashing again. i was 2 miles from home so i drove and parked it.
- yesterday it started, but was really weak. the SES light still on constant and the SRS light is now on.
- today it wont start. it turns over, but it doesnt spark? it wont start.
- currently waiting on shop appointment if needed.
- diagnostic codes: p1590, p0303, p1300, p0302, p0335, p0304, p0307
- pending code's: p0154, p0300, p0304 and A\T p1884
