Hi Guys ok,
With the exception of the loom socket which is under the rocker cover I have cleaned soaked and re cleaned all the plugs and sockets up to the ecu... reconnected and fired it up... still sounds like an old Massey tractor at tick over with the low slow vibration--- cylinder misfire. not firing at all :frusty:
On the plus side I did find a load of things that need attention: lol:... axel breather pipes have become declipped and are not much higher than the chassis for some reason.
Front Cam seal O ring is shot and weeping oil.
The plastic split sleeve/tubeing that goes over wires to prevent chaffing and damage needs replacing, brittle and perished. More than I thought...
I will order a new filter set including fuel. and a new cam seal the EGR has not been removed yet, its on the list… but I think that’s just slipped down further.
I am beginning to think the problem is more mechanical than electrical, perhaps "an" injector has actually failed or one of the copper washers.
I am reluctant to order a new loom, as I think electrical connectivity/conduction won’t get any better especially after all the cleaning. I will get a meter and check continuity/resistance end to end. Soon as I can borrow one.
