Hi further to my previous posts this Td4 just keeps giving lol, faults that is!
After all the work previously mentioned and removal of broken glow plug electrodes from head I was jumping for joy ( short lived ) I started the car up ran quieter didn't smoke and I thought great all done however after running it a while when revs are increased to 2000 up there is an overfueling situation blue/grey diesel smelling smoke quite a bit. I can't road test yet as sorn but I suspect injector so going to do a leak off test, kit ordered today.I have a snap on Ethos scan tool that ran out of upgrades in 2005 when I stopped mechanicing it does read everything on this Td4 though. I don't have a set of good values and wondered if anyone can point me in the right direction ie from memory low pressure fuel 2.5 bar,high 250 - 300 bar,maf 12 + kg/h idle upwards that sort of thing I used to have a book with known good values when I worked in the trade but now nothing.
I was informed after I bought this from a online seller that it had just had a replacement turbo so I wondered if the EGR bypass is causing gunk to be picked up from the intercooler but that doesn't tie in with the strong diesel fuel smelling exhaust. I do hope at some point not to be using this site for all the bad things about FL1s and can't wait to be more positive my wife's on my back with those little helpful comments like You've bought a pig there haven't You so the reply is usually shut up you know nothing it's a hippo.response bemused vacant look lol.
