Hi, Have a Land Rover Freelander 1999 petrol serie K, that dont start,
petrol pump works , inyectors are working fine, all 4 sparks plugs have
good spark, timing belt is correct position, starter works and move the
engine, but it doesn’t start.
Have noticed the ignition coil have power coming to it all the time , even
when the key is in locked position or not in place at all, is it normal or
mean an electric fail on the circuit, how to find it?
Was told another possibility is the CKP (cranckshaft sensor) how can I test
it?
Many thanks for your time

The torx bits were quite cheap from MAC tools.

What’s the significance of the tattoo at 1:45?

Land Rover Toolbox Videos says:

Tattoo? oh yes so there is. I wonder how that got there?…

Adam Chappell says:

best way to fill it with oil is to slide a 3/8 hose down beside the gear
shifters in the cab then stick the 3/8 hose in the fill hole and fill her
up from the cab

Daniel Howard says:

Top tip. Always remove the filler plug before the drain plug. At worst, you
can suck it out and refill, rather than draining only to find the filler is
seized in.

Land Rover Toolbox Videos says:

Yes. LT77 gearboxes also have a filter in the 5th gear housing which can be
cleaned out on an oil change. You’ll see it in the next video.

Loving the focus effects! Another option for filling on the vehicle is to
use a short ketchup bottle to squeeze it in.
