After 2 1/2 years, my Series 3 88in Diesel is finally back on the road.
What started as a bulkhead change ended up as a complete rebuild including a new chassis.
Thanks for the input from everyone here.
As always there's still some issues to sort out. I was told at the MOT station that it was idling too fast. This needs adjusting down. There is also the issue of fuel possibly draining back to the tank (and air getting into the pump) when it's been left standing. There are also a few minor leaks to sort out (as always).
There also seemed to be a whirring noise when I pull away, which disappears once I get moving. Maybe it's just a case of getting used to old gearbox technology again.
