Garage has put my Chimaera back together, but now a fuel injector is playing up. I was hoping to have the car back for doing the Christmas rounds.

Has anyone got as second hand injector which they can post tomorrow morning special delivery? I can pay you now by PayPal!

Please bow

My car is at TrackVRoad, which I assume is open tomorrow, so if anyone has one and lives in Clitheroe and could drop one off for me, I'd be over the MOON!

Why not call into a local Land Rover dealer and pick one up.
Most LD suppliers charge about 25-30 quid a piece.
Hope you get it sorted.

Because I'm in Cumbria, only have the Jumbuck and Blackbird working at the moment. Wife needs the Jumbuck. I have a bad cold so don't think the Blackbird is such a good idea (sneezing in a helmet is not good).

TrackVRoad can probably get one, but they will need to check the price and order it on Monday for delivery Tuesday, leaving only Wednesday to return the car, which is the day I'd like to use it for my seasonal family visits.

It went in for the head gasket, which turned out to be the valley gasket that had gone, so replaced all anyway, then they spotted the cams where badly worn, so replaced them, then they had to wait for head bolts because TVR Power kept losing them (I read that email as TVRs power kept losing them and had images of bolts flying around the garage). Put it all back together and an injector is playing up, which was probably the fault in the first place and running the engine rough while I was trying to find the fault probably caused the valley gasket to go.

Still, ITS CHRISTMAS xmas.

Re PM, you could try posting in GG if anyone is going from SY/N. Derbys to Clitheroe for Monday?
