So tonight looked a little like this
So one on my mates (one of the green td5's) has been having troubles, the other day it conked out on his dad and required a rac recovery
So we get it back to his farm change the fuel filter and then discover oil in the loom. So a new injector loom was ordered and fitted and seemed to be better
but then it died again. Managed to get it started again (forever winding over) and gets to my workshop. Next thing we change is swap my ECU for his as mine is known good
Well by known good I thought it was untill I found oil on mg loom too
(injector loom yo order tomorrow
)
But still runs fine, I put my ecu on his and still wjnds over forever.
So next we swapped fuel pumps in the tank.
Great started up fine
so we drive to town to get a pizza
Then it dies at the lights. Looses power and konks out
So we push it to the takeaway
and call a mate for a tow home (another TD5
)
But after holding the key in 2nd position for a while we finally got it to start and manage to drive home
Almost ... conked out at my gate :doh:
So now its sitting on my ramp waiting for a look at tomorrow evening
My next thought is injector seals, as I could hear a whining sitting in the back when it was in his motor but when I put it back in mine .. nothing so im thinking air in system making it cavitate and make noise. Plus its a fairly cheap solution
Any other thoughs ?
Bloody landrovers :doh:
