OE Parts List for Tuscan Mk1 cross reference

[gkronberg]

Hi all
Does anyone have a complete cross reference of TVR parts to original OE parts ..

Like on the website mytuscan.co.uk ..... found these .. but was hoping there was more cross over parts ...and part numbers ...?

Im looking for the Oxygen sensors (Lambda) ... believe NGK .. and rear brake pads (brand and part number non-OE possibly)



Coil Pack - Vauxhall/Opel V6 (Omega/Carlton), Bosch Part 0 221 503 002.

Crank Pick Up - Ford part 88WF-6C315-AD

Fuel Pump - Bosch part 0 580 254 957 (compatible with Bosch 0 580 254 909)

Rear brake pads - Ford Sierra (from 1.6 up to Cosworth)? any part numbers / brands ?

Starter Motor - BMW 3 Series Late Mark 3 ... part number ?

There's a parts WIKI at the top of the Tuscan page here on PistonHeads.

Folks add to the list as they find out 'stuff'. Also links to threads in the table.

If you have the 3 wire oxygen sensors then you need the TVR specific part as it is modified to deal with the S6 heat. It's a LR discovery part but the standard ones last about a month on a Tuscan.

Thanks chaps ...

Yes ... was blind to the Wiki link section ... but all good now ..

seeing I am in Australia, I was going to try the landrover oxy sensors .... but now you say they are heat treated ... was wondering what they did to do that ?

any thoughts ?

Gavin,

Don't know of what extra (coating/treatment??) they had to make them better able to cope with Speed 6 under-bonnet temps. Can't believe that lambdas for any of the super/turbo charged engines wouldn't be able to cope.

However, I do know that the later (4-wire) sensors were different because the female sockets took an earth back to the engine block.

From taking a S6 specific one and a failed wrongly fitted V8 one apart it looks like the outer sleeve is removed and a harder rubber separator disc fitted, rather than the softer insulation that the standard ones are filled with that can melt. I could be wrong though.

I haven't tried a standard one since I decatted though so not sure if still an issue.

I understood the extra wire is because the feeds to the ref and heater are split. I think the earthing is the same for both 3 wire and 4, ie back to the ecu point.
