Brilliant video, this is exactly what I've been searching for for months! Now I know what I need to take from my donor and how to connect it. Thanks very much indeed.

Extraordinary instructional video. A must see for 3.9 Rover engine owners or would-be. Henson, you likely were a tenured professor at Cambridge, Oxford or Land Rover U!

+L J Mac Many thanks. Its good to help people and save confusion.

What a great video this is. Congratulations on a wonderful piece of information. 👍

great video, well explained, no music!

Just found your video absolute god send,thank goodness for guys like you 👍👍

Fantastic video and very helpful! Thank you.

I just stumbled across this vid, wow, thanks for posting this, very useful

make sure your relays for the ECU and fuel pump are the special Bosch ones with a diode in them else you will run the battery flat

Amazing vedio..thank you

Brilliant !!

thank you for the leson i did not no and now i do, very kind of you to do this as there not meny folk do as you say in vid , lodes of hints from folk but no full story.

You can mistakenly swap the Coolant temp sensor and #1 injector connector. Done it once and it created all kinds of problems. Vehicle would start and run but once warmed up it would not restart. White connector is coolant and black are injectors.

This video is G O L D !!!

I will be watchin this video about 265 more times😂 while pausing every 2 seconds

Hi hope i get a response i am stuck trying to hot wire my 14 cux system, i have it firing up by pouring petrol onto intake but can get injectors opening etc. what wire have you run from coil to ecu? is it main injector relay signal? could you please clarify what pin on ecu it is so i can locate it thank you.

Where's you relay for the stepper motor?

Hi mate awesome video, Did you need to upgrade the few lines/ rails to high pressure or are the standard series 3 lines okay ? Thanks

@Hensen1954

Standard ones OK. This engine is a 5 litre stroker. I am running 47psi to the fuel rail. A little bit higher than standard, but seems to be great for this engine.

I do all wiring fine but enjector not firing when cracking

currently building a 3.9 in my series 2a. I am going to use an exhaust without katalyst. will the O2 sensors still work properly?

Hi I have connected up that system. When Throttle pressed have way down engine starts to misfire. Release accelerator and runs fine. Any help appreciated.

Sounds like fuel pressure or flow is the problem. Fuel need to be about 43psi.

One question: the constant live wire. Can this just be a fused live wire running directly to the battery?

+Hensen1954 not yet. Will use a pair of SU carbs to start up as I have a cam to break in and I need to start the engine straight away. No time for electrical fault finding. Still have the hotwire set up for later.

You need to look for a wiring diagram.

Is it necessary to fuse the power to 14CUX? If so, how many amps are required?

Hello, this is a very helpful video! Thanks! I'm trying to find the plugs for an O2 sensor with a green little resistor plug instead of a bluebone like yours. Do you know how to identify the color code? Greetings, Aaron

I'm having a proplem in powering my ecu up after following this video, I think the problem I have is the automatic transmission inhibitor switch which would of been on the body loom not the engine loom, what's the best fix for this?

ECU must have 30 /40 amp constant feed from the battery - thick wire, and a switched power wire from the ignition switch.
