starting Problems
Hi i am new here. But i have a question and wondering if someone can help me. I have 96 land rover discovery and i am having problems with the truck. When i start the car in the morning the truck has extended crank and getting a raw gas smell. It also has a misfire at idle. Check engine light is on. Which is code p1316. Which means excessive emission. Not sure what that means. I just replaced the cat convertors. The extended crank only happens on cold start only. Any help would be app.
Thanks
Charles

means long period to start truck. Takes about 10 to 15 seconds to start.

Ok, is that 10-15 seconds of the engine turning over, or 10-15 seconds of engine pre-heat? I've never heard of the term extended crank. What is the benefit?

Extended crank
Our Stage Ones have short cranks because the starting dog in the crankshaft pulley is closer to the bumper than that of an ordinary S III which, per definition, have extended cranks because the pulley dog is farther away from the front.
Hand start cranks, that is. Or have I got that wrong ?

Jump-start the cat?

No you don't have to convert your cats. Just give them a can of tuna.
It works like that:
If you don't feed them, they get real cranky and then they give you a jump-start in the morning, even without a starter dog to chase them. They will bite your toes!

My guess is bad fuel pump. There is a piece in it that has gone bad letting the fuel drain back to the tank instead of keeping the fuel at the rail ready for use. So it is if you have run out of gas and have to wait for the fuel to get from the tank to the fuel rail. Hope this helps
