    My pressure gauge arrived with a bsp to M12 x 1.5 adaptor which allows it to fit the injector end of the fuel pipes or in place of the fuel rail pressure sensor. All good and in excess of 6,000 psi when cranking. Now with an injector out and...

    I'm hoping a logical approach will not only be educational but also fruitful ! I have a feeling you might be right although I need to know how the injectors are fired and whether RAVE is correct. An alternative is to take voltage readings from...

    I don't want to doubt RAVE but is this correct? Each injector has an electrical connector which provides a 12V direct supply from the main relay and connections to the ECM. If the battery voltage falls to between 6V and 9V, the operation of the...

    To solve this and any further high pressure fuelling problems that come my way, I have purchased a 6,000 PSI gauge and an adaptor that will fit into the hp pressure sensor hole. This will allow rail monitoring. If low I can also fit the gauge to...

    Do the ARB bushes while the drop links are off. Takes all load off then ! You'll need to slide under and a pair of ramps will help. 4 x 10mm bolt heads from memory threaded into front subframe.

    Thanks. Does a HP pump regulator problem throw a fault code?? Beginning to think that the pressure sensor is not telling the truth. No pressure on rail after cranking.

    Checked out fuel rail sensor to ECU wiring, modified loom fitted and continuity checks out ok. Rather surprised that cracking an injector fuel nut immediately I stopped cranking didn't show residual pressure. May be a clue !

    To fit the bearing you need to press it into the hub carrier by using force on the outer rim only. I can't see how you could do this. Also after fitting the bearing the FL1 has a circlip to hold it, think the FL2 is the same, not sure how you...
