Maybe I'm confused in the notation. PL5 have 5 gears on drive position?

Ignition coil is work or not. I learn PGM-FI manual, IAT sensor is engaged at cold start. You can connect a variable resistor to IAT sensor for test. May be helpful.

Instruction manual only G4 no PL5.

Ok!

Separate tailpipes is look good but i`d like a hidden power. It is better to be hidden in Russia, it good for taxes and insurance. 136 Bhp in car documents save money.

No-no-no! Safety first! I would like to ask you, PL5 gearbox in your car is a factory or overhaul?

An alternative way to give fuel into the engine bypassing the main line. Better to use any fuel pump with needed pressure. Be careful of fuel leaks! Risk of fire!

Thanks! I think a tree broke a drive cable. Motor is alive, i listen noise but sunroof is closed. When summer comes, I want to paint the roof and repare sunroof too.

upd: "Why engine is overheating?" (Burned fan connector.) New expansion tank. Russian commercial truck Gazelle donate me it. Rebuilding exhaust system. New pipes from Gazelle and ZiL. (Look at twenty years pipes - is not bad condition!)

And if you start the engine using an alternative container with clean fuel?

Absolutly! But this is not enough. Keywords are needed - "vodka"! "Vodka" - The Tower of Babel is the Russian language. - Tovaritsch, vodka? - Da! And all that to break the ice. Whoever drinks of vodka with Russian automatically understands Russian. Maybe not after the first bottle.

Thanks for all!! He is not old. This car is one of the few oficial Rover supply in Russia. First owner is Sukhoi Company. Not commercial use, only personal use Major General Vladimir Sergeyevich Ilyushin main test pilot of Sukhoi. Full servis history. No damaged in car accidents. Only falling tree on the roof in 2008, next years car was stored in the garage. Next owner bought him cheaply in 2013 with damaged roof, repaired it and tried to give him some servis in Honda (in Russia we have no MG-Rover servis today), and when this man learned about the prices on works and parts he sold a car immediately. Next owner replace belts and brake pads and liquids at all. So Sterling got a new life. The reason for the sale was the hard way to a country house in the winter. Rover Sterling - is not a Land Rover as we know. Today he is mine. 80.000 on dash and it seems to be true. Only left bottom ball joint was need replaced but i replace all. I replaced the the timing, oil seals, water pump, alternator, water radiator and half of exhaust system. Not work sunroof only, sometimes ABS fault lamp is blinking. I added LPG system, расход топлива is 13/100km. in mixed cycle if drive carefully. In fact is a car for my wife how first car in driver`s career. I prefer public transportation, I do not have the patience to wait in Moscow traffic jams.

Hello all from Moscow! Rover Sterling C27a 1993 The first photo after the purchase in May 2014.

Hi! Hi! Thanks a lot! IAT sensor have a wide temperature range so if IAT sensor work wrong, PGM-FI ECU have no information for IAT sensor fault. Emergency lamp blink when sensor is damaged: short circuit or open circuit. For example today weather in Moscow is -7c, but if wrong worked IAT give +17c - ECU prepare poor mix that may be the cause bad cold start at first time. Pressure regulator may be tested (approx) with partner who must limit pressure after regulator but pressure meter is better.

Hello! First of all look at fuel pressure regulator and IAT sensor. p.s. sorry for my terrible english.
