Looking at your vid, I'd be inclined to look at the CPS carefully, personally I would put it on a scope and see what the output is doing.

before I remove the sensor...

lock the flywheel with pin (obvs)

but, do I need to use LRT-12-122 shouldn't I be ok so long as I don't move the bracket just the sensor?? or would you recomend I just but one and do it as instructed in RAVE?

As long as you leave the mount in place, I think you should be OK assuming it's in the correct place to start with.
No need to lock the flywheel but worth rotating to see if any pins are bent or missing.

thanks, will have a look at the pins

the backet has enough crud on it to make me believe it's never ever moved?

 

[JohnnyCrash]

You could replace the centre section and see what you get, if you can get hold of a good one. Personally i would go for a complete known good or reconned pump. Obviously something is causing the quantity servo to oscillate, could be a failing timing solenoid if the modulation is bouncing around. But that is not in the centre section. A diesel specialist could maybe tell you. Where are you maybe someone could point you to one.

I live in St Helens but work in Manchester so anyone North West really

in a previous job I used to deal with Diesel Jones in Manchester, but not spoken to them for a few years now, might be worth a call later see what they suggest

Either Diesel Jones or Diesel Bob at Ribchester then. See what they say. Think you may end up with a new pump.

DO NOT remove the bracket, only the sensor from the bracket.

Thanks, thought so

why does RAVE tell yout to remove bracket anyway??

You need a special tool to set the bracket so the sensor has the correct air gap. RAVE will surmise the fitter has that tool. Unless you carefully mark it's position do not remove it.

It's covered in crud and unless the pins on the flywheel are bent or missing I see no reason for me to move the bracket

It would be interesting to get hold of the dimensions of the setting tool.

I'll forward if I have to buy

You would have thought they would have been put on the net by now but i can't find them anywhere. Pretty simple to make one if i had the dimensions.

really you only need to know the air gap? as it would just be sensor dimensions + gap?

Yes true but you try and find it mentioned anywhere. Plenty of guesses but nothing definitive.

ok, so before I accidentally spiked my ECM I managed to get the car warmed up after changing the Crank Position Sensor (what a crap job would be easier if started motor wasn't in the way)

fine when cold, on high idle, but soon as it starts to warm up erratic idle returns and cuts out :-(

reading live data the modulation is still too high

have done, must be air leaking in from filter, lines or lift pump :-(

If the lift pump is working it can only cause a fuel leak not suck air. Only time air can be sucked in is on cranking on pre 99 motors.
