Went o start my engine tonight and very loud clacking sound, it is oil or fuel spiting out of one of the injectors, smoke too.
Any ideas please??
 
Sorry 200Tdi, was fine this morning, looks like its air spitting when the engine was running, very loud clanking sound, but there is oil there too.
 
Had a look today in daylight. The second injector in from bulkhead is out higher then the rear this is the one that's puffing out . Looks like steam or a mist of diesel.
 
Coming out from the bottom of injector puffing out like a steam train when engine running

So, the injector is no longer sealed to the cyl head. the big question is why, as the clamp should not really come loose, and I sugegst you need to find out why seal that has "failed"

I.E. clamp loose/broken/missing (!) / threads stripped in head or on clamp bolt etc., etc.

post a pic up, and folks will be able to see whats missing....
