Looking for help.
96 Disco 300tdi motor. I have replaced the following:
Pistons, rings, head, valves, springs, turbo, lift pump, injector pump, injectors, intercooler, glowplugs.
New timing belt installed with new idler, tensioner, crank pulley, cam seal, crank seals.
Compression test produced 340psi on #4, 390psi on #1-#3 cylinders, tested at glow plug site.
Fuel system bled correctly.
Timing pins installed and cam gear mark aligned correctly.
Fuel stop solenoid functioning correctly.
NO START!
I suspect that some of my new Bosch injectors (from Turner Engineering)may have arrived stuck or my rebuilt injector pump is not producing enough psi, so I sent the injectors to be tested at a diesel shop.
Extensive knowledge of the 300tdi is limited in the USA, so I am begging for all the help I can get.
I have fuel at the top of the injectors.
No blockages in air flow.
Motor cranks and cranks and will not catch. Valve tappets adjusted correctly per shop manual.
Thanks in advance!
