    Unusual needle RPM - diesel

    I can't get this pump to static setting. It has one setting giving a 0.95 in dial gauge , much towards the lower range of pump's travel.

    Unusual needle RPM - diesel

    I know what you are telling me Wammers. Despite everything else is out of line, should the 4th injector output go as low as 295 RPM? Does anyone else experience such low values from the 4th injector? Ans I can remember there was a comment on RPM going below 500 and engine stalled by ECU. Should...

    Unusual needle RPM - diesel

    Thanks Grrr for that Excel sheet. Yes, the 4th injector is new, Bosch part. No, I could not set static timing correctly. But the 4th injector reading going so low below the idle RPM and it has no visible effect baffles me

With NANOCOM got the following data (hot engine ,stationary car) and it appears that the needle RPM goes below the idle RPM . The issue is that observed random hiccup was...

    Diesel Alternator

    I also found that and no part number indicated. But it's shown separated from the diode pack in the diagram. I removed it by undoing a single 8mm nut. The broken wire post has 2 connectors soldered to it's base. May be a used parts guy can help.

    Diesel with BECM issue.

    May be I've misunderstood. I thought 'Late EDC ' means engine with EGR & MAF and 'Early EDC' means non EGR with IAT sensor. (mine came with this setup) Also, whether late or early, all diesel ECUs are BOSCH, I believe.

    Diesel with BECM issue.

    Well, it refused to start. Just kept on cranking. Changed back to 'Late EDC' and it started. Now I'm confused as the car is 1997 MY , and must be 'Early EDC'.:confused::confused:
