Hi there, I'm going to do a Liqui Moly Diesel Purge on my 300tdi next week.
I'm not that familiar with the 300tdi fuelling setup but have fathomed that you only have an in and an out on the fuel filter. So when I want to put the cleaner through the injectors I clearly unhook the fuel out from the filter housing and dip it in the bottle. It's the return that's stumped me? It would be sensible to have the returned cleaning fluid put back into the bottle rather than the fuel tank.
Sooo, where is the fuel return pipe? From my diagrams there is a return to the injector pump and then a return from that to the tank. Anyone know how I find this pipe?
Or, do I just not worry about it and instead just empty the fuel filter and fill it with the cleaner? Not so keen on that one as it will be diluted in the filter and will get returned to the tank (maybe?).
Any help much appreciated.
Cheers
Edit: I did find this thread http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f7/200-300tdi-injection-system-cleaning-130705.html
which has a cryptic picture of the setup! The orange pipe on the pic seems to be going down the injector pump. Any ideas where exactly it wants to fit? : ) Cheers
