Frequently asked questions

What is the RTC3948 carburettor conversion kit used for?
The RTC3948 kit covers the carburettor and its emission control arrangement on the 2.25 litre four cylinder petrol engine built to Detox (EGR) specification. It's used on Land Rover Defender models where the carburettor and EGR setup need renewing together rather than piecemeal.
Which engine specification does this kit suit?
This kit suits the 2.25 litre four cylinder petrol engine in Detox (EGR) emission control form, as fitted to Land Rover Defender models from 1987. Detox engines carry an exhaust gas recirculation arrangement that non-Detox engines don't, so the carburettor setup differs.
How do I tell if my engine is Detox specification?
Detox specification is identified by the exhaust gas recirculation pipework running from the exhaust manifold back to the inlet side. Non-Detox 2.25 petrol engines don't have it. If the EGR pipe and valve are absent, this Defender kit isn't the right one for your engine.
Why would a Detox carburettor setup need this kit?
Carburettor and EGR components on the 2.25 petrol typically deteriorate from heat cycling and ethanol in modern fuel, causing flooding, poor idle and rich running. On Detox engines a stuck EGR arrangement adds rough running under load. The kit renews the carburettor side of that system.
