Thanks for the advice. The shop fitted a secondhand ecu and cleaned most of the wiring connections, etc. The Range Rover came back to life after that. I had a very long drive home, since I sunk it while on holiday/doing work experience for my degree nearly 700 miles from where I live. The trip was uneventful, other than the occasional "stumbling" idle at stoplights. Today I started pulling the interior apart and hung everything up in the garage to dry. Next, I'll probably get to work re-flushing and greasing the electrical connections.
I'll probably keep an eye out for wrecked discos with good engines just in case, but I'm really amazed at how tough these trucks are. I used to be a Jeep person, but this is my second Range Rover classic, and I'll probably be a Range Rover person for the rest of my life.
