well, ive managed to decide to fit the injection system to the engine instead of the carbs. unfortunately though i took it all to bits without knowing how it went back together.
is there any sort of rover based pdf type rebuild service manual available at all? im stuck!

either pickup a second-hand manual on eBay or hit the torrents and take your chances. Ramon's site might have enough info for you as well

Hello Karlos, I can imagine how difficult this is gonna be with no parts guide and assembly diagrams and (I'm also assuming) not knowing how it all works.
# You need the Rover microfiche CD for the Generic SD1 which contains exploded views of the Single Plenum Efi system, from somewhere like Rimmers or the Heritage centre at Gaydon.
# Then a Rover SD1 workshop manual also available new, I think, from Rimmers or SH from Ebay, where the system is covered.
# On the other hand, Haynes is similar - some might say a bit better.
# Finally there is the step by step problem of how the Efi System actually works, for which you could do worse than an Efi Operations Manual.
In the meantine every component is explained from the archive
Here where you will also find access to loadsa stuff.
Good Luck.
