rules that out then!
I'm going to swap injectors about in the next installment, now I've eliminated the PTM, (assuming the second hand replacement is working correctl).
I've tested the harness, additionally I'm guessing the PTM would flag an broken harness as it does an unplugged injector.
I'm hoping to avoid such solutions.
I've heard it said you should always replace injectors as a set.

I guess this would be one reason why.
If they were professionally reconditioned they should be OK.I do however have reservations that the injectors in this engine are working correctly. 1 is definitely new, but the other 3 are quite obvious reconditioned, so maybe one or more of those is misbehaving.It shouldn't be necessary to replace a whole set of injectors Ali, as the injector's characteristics are loaded into the PTM using the diagnostic software. The cost would be prohibitive too, especially at LR prices.
When this working one arrives, I'll fit it and take it for a drive and see how it goes. I'm so close to getting this issue solved, but also so far off too.
That's the issue, going by the quality of the other work this poor engine has seen, it makes me wonder if they were done on the cheap. I actually don't know what can be reconditioned in these injectors, as I didn't think this design had any moving parts.
I'm tempted to pull a damaged second hand one I've got apart, just to see what goes on inside.

The FL2 injector seems very expensive to recondition, with prices around £130 each, exchange.
New they're up at around the £300 mark each.
I'm not if the D3 injector is the same design as the FL2 injector. The FL2 injector seems to use the spilled fuel as the activation linkage for the main injection cycle. Does the D3 use a similar design injector?
I believe it does have an oil temperature sensor. I'm sure it's on the front of the block.
That's right it can, although my issue is a regular misfire, like 1 cylinder isn't running at all, then all of a sudden, it comes in. It's odd indeed.
