If there is a problem with the copper washers then you get gas from the cylinder in the fuel rail in the head, this is often accompanied by the fuel pump howling which goes away when you bleed it.Yes I agree, even with the nanocom, you really need to know what you are looking at.
- but temps do seem accurate and normal.
- starts beautifully, every time.
-it runs better after new injectors, but the idle / low rev cold start problem still exists.
Nope it was a bag of the proverbial before. It had a cracked injector cup, and filled the engine with diesel. It never ran well before, felt like it had no turbo. Now runs like a dream when warm.
So the head was required.
Sorry, this is a confusing post, but so is the issue ( too me, and a workshop...)
Smoke does look blue / grey, which makes me wonder, like some of you, if it’s not oil getting in somewhere?!
If the injector seals are fitted poorl, would I not still be getting diesel in my oil?
Thanks for all the patience! I will resolve it and keep the thread updated!
If the o rings leak then diesel will come out into the oil because its pressurized to 4 bars, and pressure in the head is little more than atmospheric, so you may see oil level rising.
