right then. i've got a bit of a problem with my 90.

bought it as a 2.5turbo and put a 300tdi in it not long after i got it. still running the lt77 box.

the original transferbox was shot to hell so fitted a new one out of a disco.

all was fine till this weird major vibration started. really does feel like its going to shake itself to bits. checked all round the engine/box and nothing is touching the body/chassis.

so i changed the engine mounts, this made it worse. then a few mechanic friends thought it might be fueling. so i fitted a new lift pump, then a brand new fuel pump (on loan) this all made no differance.

then i changed the injectors. this made it a million times worse; blue/black smoke from the exhaust and only ran on three cyliners. put the old injectors back in. now runs fine just stuck with this vibration.

any ideas would be massivly appreciated as i have exhausted all other avenues of help i can get.

thanks in advance for any comments / help
 
Half Shafts ? UJ's ?

Use the search function Fella ...
( failure to do so usually results in some heavy inbound verbal ordanace ;) Whatever prob YOU encounter, someone will have head it / dealt with it before, and it'll be there somewhere within the search results. )

sounds a good guess im with him on this
 
sorry. its worst at idle but doesn't really change when driving under load or engine brakeing. so this made me think that it can't be anything else apart from fueling/engine problem
 
knobshinner? really. sorry for putting this post in the wrong place. just seen thats what everyone else seems to have done so i did the same. have since moved it/started a new thread in the right place i hope.
 
The clue is in the name ''Introduce Yourself''...its not ''Hi..Major 90 Problem'' section.
 
sorry not all that clued up on the whole forum etiquette as this is the first time i have used / post something on one of these sites. didn't know it was a requirement to get some help with a problem thats been bugging me for the last 6 months.
