**** Back from from Hospital - Now very much 'Ouch Argh and Post Op' recovery !! **** *** ALL our New & PreLoved Differential available from stock - Are now relisted !! *** PLEASE : Just bear in mind ..... Shipping might just be a little bit slower than our normal 'next day' !!!
None of these are essential for a Megasquirt installation but each has its place and can make a huge difference making life easier, so we have decided these are a
good idea to have on our Webshop.
Amongst the huge job lot of allsorts we bought in - and at a keen prices - some I wanted some of these - but way too many just for myself !
Plastic Boxed 171 Assorted pices and colours, and super cheap too at £9.50 each plus VAT. And when these are all gone they are all gone ................. Grab whilst you can as it was a bit of a one off purchase - won't be getting any more of these !
Again, part of the huge job lot of allsorts bought in - had to buy everything to get the bits I wanted and some like this I didn't really - so cheap as chips if you want one (and boy are these usefull sometimes LOL - and at a keen prices) - I kept myselt one- Others have to go !!!
And like all the items in this weird and wonderful page - when these are all gone they are ....all gone ................. Grab whilst you can as it was a one off purchase - won't be getting any more of these !
I have bought in a number of these, and at a keen price - these are HP Fuel filters for all Rover V8s, except THOR (THORs run Higher Pressure @ 52 PSI).
These Filters have a raft of Part Numbers - ESR4065 (Being the most 'superceeded' to one), NTC6936, GFE7118, Valeo 587209, 71760842, 2330079045, BOSCH 450905911 and so on ! Bascially if you have now - Or are fitting from carbs etc a HP EFI Rover V8 (Except THORs) this is the baby - run these on my own 5.2 V8 - All's good ! Grab whilst you can as it was a bit of a one off purchase - won't be getting any more of these !
Now, just be careful, these are the coil packs used for EDIS installations, not I REPEAT NOT any installs that use later VW Audi Coil Packs. If you are using an EDIS unit be it a 4 cylinder or V8 install (uses 2 x of these) then for EDIS Installs these are the babies !
Brand new boxed and will be shipped in the UK Via Royal Mail Special Delivery We found a big batch tucked away, so these are on a bit of a special price to clear - so if these are what you wnat worth having as spares at this price !
On Megasquirt, when you convert from the Lucas system and a traditional 'Coil' driven Rev / Tacho Counter, MS won't have the Rev Counter work without internal modifications ....
So, this little beauty - about 40mm x 30mm will allow you to run your rev counter without any modifications to the ECU !. Simply run 1 x wire from each of the A B C D coil feeds to the board - this is a 'Screw' type unit - ( see above for a 'Solder' type option ), then connect your rev counter to the Tower screw Hole saying 'Tacho Out' All 5 of the connections are engraved on the board, once done either "pot" it up, or seal it up and job is done !.
If you are moving to EFI From Carbs, or just need a new decent OEM High Pressure Fuelling pump that won't break the bank ? Then this is a good choice. Brand New, OEM (early) Range Rover Classic - so made for the V8 EFI systems - works perfectly with all Hotwire fuel rail PRVs !. Good enough and man enough to power my Modified 5.2 Rover V8 !. Chosen for being robust relaible, 2 wire connection and more than man enough - and cheap !. Easily fitted to most fuel tanks, Length by changing rubber hose, shorten by shortening steel tube !. Comes complete with gasket. Easy to fit to most tanks, as its a simple hole to cut, then fix through the top mount with 5 screws or nutserts. This fits the same holes as the Carb Low pressure pumps so almost a straight swap ! NOTE : This NOT part of the standard Kit and is an Optional Extra
Over 10 Years I have tried, and heard of many sagas and stories of USB to Serial Adapter units that basically are either 'Super Flakey' - orr just plain do not work
Finally ...and after more unsuccessful trials than I care to think about - we have this ! Absolutely, 100% Guaranteed Stable & Simple - no CDs or Drivers to Download and then give you error messages Buy this plug it in - open 'Tuner Studio' - and it just bloody works !

High Quality and Good Condition Ignition Leads are key to any V8 running smoothly, more so when your engine is either covered with or going under deep water.
This kit allows you to build up a set of Ultra-High quality leads at sensible cost. Available with either 'Red' or 'Blue' Ignition lead - 'Blue' is sent by default unless you say otherwise on order !!! Double Insulated Fibre Cored Leads, and new Terminals for both Coil and Plug ends keep corrosion and 'tracking' at bay. Kit complete with new Silicone Boots and Hoods & Full Instructions Included, also consider the ‘Crimper’ Unit below to make professional durable and easy crimps. (These are NOT supplied in our Standard Kits and are an Optional Extra.) Please Note : This Kit is for the earlier Coil Pack set ups using 'EDIS' 8 Controller Module and Ford G1 Coil Packs

We can also supply a rather nice and inexpensive 'Crimping Tool' to help you crimp coil and plug terminals to the lead ends. The crimping tools out there on the market are often VERY expensive - and when you are maybe doing just these 8 x leads and maybe a friends and /or a few more , that is a big expense !.
So, we have these !. Ok, yes - they might look a bit 'Mickey Mouse' but actually they are rather good - used them when I did a set for myself and I was very pleasantly suprised !!! ! These make really good crimps, you use either a set of molegrips to squeeze, or better I found was to use a vice and get it right you have both hands free too. Whilst these are NOT going to allow you to be a commercial lead maker these are absolutely more than good enough to get decent crimps for very little expense. Please note there are 2 x prices.... The cheaper price is for when you buy any 'Ignition' products, ie Terminal ends for either EDIS or VAG coils, or any of our full kits. And at slightly higher price if you are just wanting to buy the Crimping tool on it's on its own with no ignition items ! (These ARE however supplied in all our Standard Megasquirt 1 2 & 3 Kits as standard.)
When you fit a V8 from something to your Vehicle sometimes you have issues sorting out the route from the Top Hose outlet to the Radiator Top Hose !
There are 'Quite a Few' version of top hose outlets from the various inlet Mnaifolds, we have a selection from time to time, so here is Type 1. !! 'Type 1' basically as you can see from the pictures comes out almost but not quite stright towards the front of the vehicle, and up and a bit to the Right..... If this isn't quite right have a lookie at the various other versions listed !...Get one that close and life can be a lot easier !!!! (These are NOT supplied in our Standard Kits and are an Optional Extra.)

Making good 'Crimps' on the Ignition leads is essential.
Up to now its been either a choice of doing the best you can – or investing in a hugely expensive crimping tool. These are Imported from the USA and are vastly superior to anything else we have found even at 4 x the price. Simple to use, making superb professional 'Crimps', not cheap, but not expensive either - and will save you a large amount of time and grumbling. (These are NOT supplied in our Standard Kits and are an Optional Extra.)
Often get sticky with carbon, the are a straight forward unscrew and rescrew in new non sticky unit !
Comes with a New Mounting Plate Unit Gasket (always good idea to clean it all up and remount) - and a Crush Washer
There are a rafty of versions available of Rover V8 'Top ends', with differing 'Inlets' & 'ports' etc between them. There are 'V belt' 3.9s 4.0 4.6s 'GEMS' and various 'Serpentine' units - all will fit - but - plumbing up your cooling system can be a bit of a head scratcher.
These units (ERR319) are at best near impossible to get as no longer made, and if you can find one still in stock expect to pay circa £100+. ! We have a few of these which can help with plumbing up coolant system. ALL of the ones we have are the type with a Verical tube with a plug in the top - these are the best as the tube is a 'bleed port' allowing you to get excess air out of the cooling system, which is tricky to do without this unit, as it is when fitted 'Highest Point' in system. In 'MS FAQ' Section is a picture of these units fittd and also a helpful diagram of a Rover V8 basic 'coolant routing'. so with this and the diagrams its all just might just help you work out how best to do yours !
This unit is exactly the same unit as the listing above - EXCEPT - we have been to the platers and had a batch of these sit in the plating tank for 'Quite some time'.
The result means they now look superb (pitting at the 4 x ends but thats to be expected) and now these are rust free both internally and externally, as you can see from the pictures. Due to plating costs these are a few £s more ! - but do look rather good if we say so ourselves !!
Keeping a V8 engine cool when being worked hard can be a task and a half !. This low temperature running Thermostat will reduce the overall running temperatures of your V8.
Fits at models with the standard '2 bolt' fixing making a significant difference. These are the hard to obtain '74 Degree Stat' (most V8 are 88-92 !) we have managed to source a number of these, when they are gone they may well be gone for a while. As a guide ALL rover V8s run best at around a target temperature of 80-85 degrees, more than this means strain on head gaskets and liners, esp 4.6s !
Ideally a Rover V8 should have a cooling system that over cools the engine, the thermostat then regulates the temperature.
In reality V8s and not just in competition struggle to remain cool, or cool down fast if they get over hot. Race engines often don't run thermostats, if they jam the engine will suffer massive damage in seconds. Restrictor plates give massive cooling control, fast de-heat times and an improved coolant flow (even open a thermostat is very restrictive). These kits have 3 x CNC machined Discs in 3 x sizes in special Al Alloy 5251-H22 (Just in case you thought it was any old Ali !) The plates each giving differing flow rates allowing you to 'tune' your engine. Start with the mid size, then either go higher or lower or stay with it - target around 80-85 degress. These made a huge difference to my engine when fitted - so we thought we should put them in here !. Just be aware that the engine will take slightly longer to warm up from cold - but this pay off is worth it !!
‘Fuel Parts’ is widely regarded as one of the best Quality Brands out there, and hence our choice. Avoid pattern parts in white boxes nobody wants to own up to making. This is one of the key components in the system, do you really want to use a cheap poor quality pattern part or one from a scrap yard with 100,000+ miles use ?. (Supplied in our Kits)
‘Fuel Parts’ 4 wire heated Lambda Sensor unit. You need this mainly for tuning with the Software and minor corrections when driving. These should be mounted in the Y part of the Exhaust. Again like the VR Sensor avoid cheap white box brands, as they can be poor quality and give inaccurate tuning results. We have sold these now for some years, yes, we can find cheaper, no, we can’t find better.
This is also supplied with the settings you need to add to your MS MSQ program settings so it works properly !! (This is an optional extra in all kits )
MS Coded Manifold Air Temperature Sensor.
Fits all our replacement AFM Units and MAT weld on mountings. Measuring the Air Temperature entering the engine and being a key ‘Input’ for the Megasquirt ECU System, you want one which is both good quality and with the correct temperature to resistance curve values to match the ECU. This is both, so no reprogramming is required. The same unit is used on all Megasquirted Rover V8s ie MS1x MS2x AND MS3X Mini Pro. (Supplied in Kits)
Coolant Temperature Sensor - with correct codes for Megasquirt ECUs - ie MS1x MS2x AND MS3X Mini Pro.
If you suddenly find your engine is running very rich, starts fine but as it warms up gets worse then open 'Megatune or Tuner Studio', look at the Coolant Guage. If it reads -40 then this sensor has failed. DO NOT Buy an Intermotor unit - you'll be replacing it very soon again !. Ours are the highest quality, and honestly - if you play with a hot engine in deep water -this unit is useful to carry as a spare !! 'Hot' CTS Sensors do not like ice cold water long term - even our ones - we carry a spare due to this !
A CNC Machined Steel Lambda Mounting Boss is required in the exhaust to enable a Lambda Sensor to be fitted.
Our boss is designed in a 'Top Hat' design. The idea being these are easier to weld, as the hole cut in the exhaust allows the smaller bottom half of the mounting to locate and sit at the correct height, whilst the Top half gives better gap coverage allowing an easier and better finished result after welding.(NOT Supplied in our Kits - This is an optional extra)
Our Stainless Steel Mounting boss is also designed in a 'Top Hat' design.
The idea being these are easier to weld, as the hole cut in the exhaust allows the smaller bottom half of the mounting to locate and sit at the correct height, whilst the Top half gives better gap coverage allowing an easier and better finished result after welding.(NOT Supplied in our Kits - This is an optional extra)
When second-hand these will often have common problems of the wire covering being brittle from heat and 'cracking', grommets missing or gone hard, or pins being a poor fit due to excessive wear.
Also beware of the pattern ones - they often can give wierd misfires and issues - Ours are Brand New Genuine Ford Plug units, complete with grommets and pins. (Sold as 1 x Unit with 3 x Gromets 1 x Plug and 3 x pins )
A MAT mounting is required for an Engine MAT Sensor (Manifold Air Temperature Sensor).
This is our standard Steel mounting, requiring welding to a suitable part of the Air intake system, we would suggest where the original AFM is now. However many customers instead choose one of our AFM Replacement Units, where this is all done in a complete neat replacement unit – see Optional Extras page.(NOT Supplied in our Kits)
Whilst a MAT mounting is required for mounting the MAT Sensor (Manifold Air Temperature Sensor) some customers want an Aluminium mounting solution.
Whilst still popular, since bringing out our AFM Replacement Units, many customers go that route as a simple neat solution, or if ali is required we offer these for those who want them. These are also the Top Hat design. - NOTE : We do NOT recommend that these are TIG welded on to V8 Plenums due to heat soak giving wrong sensor values.!!
Used to block off either old sensors removed from Rover V8 Downpipes (Lucas GEMs Sensors are the wrong type), or when you remove your Lambda Sensor plugging the remaining empty hole. Why might you need this ?. In off road use Lambda Sensors go "Ping" and die, sometimes quickly, not liking being dunked whilst red hot into deep ice cold water. (NOT Supplied in Kits)
Listed below are our range of 4 x AFM Tubes, all of which take our MAT - 'Manifold Air Temperature' sensors for Megasquirt systems.
One of the design challenges we wanted to achieve was to get rid of the massive restriction in air flow that the standard factory 'Hotwire AFM' achieved so well. If you look at the picture opposite you will see that there is a huge change now in the ID of our tubes which remove this restriction meaning more air to the engine, which if you combine with the better stronger Spark, and Megasquirts 'mapable fuelling' means - MORE power !. These are all available as part of our standard kits - with the ability to choose whichever AFM suits your engine bay best, or purchase here on there own.
We now do 4 Models of the 'Megasquirt V8 AFM (Air Flow Meter) Replacement Units', all have been plated in a Deep Passivate finish.
The 1st is this complete replacement unit, and is more suited to those who really need the absolute confidence of having a more waterproof solution. This Model completely replaces the original AFM Assembly which can then be sold. This is basically the same length overall as the unit removed keeping life simple !. It is designed to replace the AFM where currently fitted, and is secured by 2 Hoses – 1 Hose between Plenum and the Unit, the other between the unit and Air Filter Housing + Snorkel. The 'MAT' Sensors supplied by us are a direct fitment into this assembly.** An 'A'AFM' Tube is supplied in all MS1X MS2X and MS3X Kits - choose whichever AFM suits you best (all same price if Kit is bought), or purchase here on there own. **
The 2nd option of our AFM tubes is the 'Le Stubby' Unit
These are as a result of being asked for something very very short where space is at a absolute premium. So, these are just 70mm long including being flared both ends. The actual 'Mounting Boss' for the Sensor is 20mm, so, if you add say a hose and have it 25mm inserted into each end, then in effect the unit takes up just 20mm !. Deep Passivate finished, and really good for those engine bays like mine - that have 'Aaaargh ...bugger all room' problem .** An 'AFM' Tube is supplied in all MS1X MS2X and MS3X Kits - choose whichever AFM suits you best (all same price if Kit is bought), or purchase here on there own. **
The 3rd option is the 'Stubby Unit' - But with a 'PWM Port Take Off'
These units are used where there is a need to run a PWM / IAC unit which is being used where Stepper Motors are either not present on system, or stepper unit can't be run and in a Deep Passivate finish. Again, having been asked for something very very short where space is a premium, we have these which are the same + PWM Port on side for the PWM system. Just 70mm long flared both ends and as in the picture with the Port take off TIG welded in place.** An 'AFM' Tube is supplied in all MS1X MS2X and MS3X Kits - choose whichever AFM suits you best (all same price if Kit is bought), or purchase here on there own. **
The last option is the Model shown opposite.
This unit uses the end part of an existing 3.9 Hotwire AFM Assmebly which bolts to the end of the new replacement AFM flange with suitable sealer (LR STC50550 is recomended). This reassembled unit then allows the standard V8 Air Filter Housing to be clipped back into place and maintains everything in the standard position within the engine bay. However, this factory join from AFM to Air Filter Box is sealed with just 2 x O rings, and for deep water wading this factory seal can fail, hence why in competition the complete replacement unit is more often one of the other units we do , but for a road based motor this is a popular and neat under bonnet solution. Finished in Deep Passivate plating all available as part of our standard kits - with the ability to choose whichever AFM suits your engine bay best, or purchase here on there own
