Default My 4.2 v8 engine rebuild




hello everyone
I have just finished rebuildrebuilding my 2004 s type 4.2 v8
this was not a cheap project cost me over $10.000 nzd
Did my first engine fire up
Engine is running so must have done something right
But engine Unfortunately it is running very rough
From what I am understanding it has to do with the fuel injection system
But it is starting to give me a headache
ElectriElectrical side is not my strong point
the fuel rail sensor is brand new and was purchased from
Sng barratt in the United Kingdom
yet I am getting a fault code for this
Any help would be greatly appreciated
As this has been a 4 month rebuild
thanking you
Darrol

Are the camshafts timed correctly at 45 degrees ATDC?
