I have four D3's that I am using for spares, if you can get to the Wisbech area and want to take it off you can have it.

Re the fuel gauge. I just finished another 2012 TDV6. Body off - Engine rebuild. Started perfectly, ran smooth, getting up to temp, cough - splutter - cough - die. Started immediately, ran fine for about a minute then cough - splutter - die. Same again, then again, hmmmm ? Ah, fuel low -...

Hahhaahahahahahhaah that is funny.

How would @Smiffie feel if someone did that on his forum? That is exactly how I felt, I read other threads where many people chipped in to try to help, even asking the obvious like "does it have fuel" However, I did not get one response even when I asked for a specific person to help, I got...

With replies like that it is no wonder people are emailing me with the question - have you fixed it ? it is also the reason why I have not posted the results, and yes it is now running perfectly. Having owned and run a specialized car forum for over 20 years I know enough to know that unless...

Really ? Not one person, this situation is common with the fault codes and could happen to anyone, maybe if I had a faulty indicator you would all be telling me how to fix it, but something unusual and I get a blank. I have been specific about what I have done to aid anyone who might have...

Smiff reporting captain. Well, I am like the dog who swallowed a one pound coin - No change. So, after a month of waiting for the sparks we set about testing stuff to make sure it wasn't something silly or obvious. For those that don't want to read the whole post I shall give you the short...

Good news. There is no bad news, but that is all the good news I have. I pushed this POS out and parked it up after my last post in Feb. I have regained some assemblance of enthusiasm to have another go. So it will be back in the workshop later next week. I have a super duper sparks who...

I have had the air filter on, and filled with water, but I have had the body on and off so many times that I don't bother with these any more. It simply will not fire at all, not even a splutter. but the slightest sniff of easy and it jumps into life. I don't think the air flow meter...

What you have said is exactly what I thought - understood it to be. If it spins over with the ignition on, then immobilizer is off, plus the low pressure pump is working, so the basic security happiness has been achieved. The codes I have were, Coolant level - because the header tanks was...

Thank you for this, is the coding a main dealer job, my problem would be getting to a dealership. As for rpm, The rev counter does fluctuate on the dial, so I should think it is getting a pulse, I cant understand the multimeter fully but I am getting a continuous measure of readings when I...

Update on this POS. The body has been off and on more times than I can remember. I bought a "supposably" good used high pressure pump, it is giving the same readings as my old one, there is pressure at the rail, and there still isn't any fuel related faults on the Snap-On. I removed number 4...

Thank you Lynall, I have had similar thoughts. I can have the body off in about an hour, so I am thinking I'll do that and join directly onto the pump, I've parked it up for the minute to give me time to see what you guys might come up with and to consider what to do. I have started working...

Thank you for the video above, I have seen this video before as this is about the trigger wheel, as I have said in my post, I put the original trigger wheel back on, and it would not start, not knowing why it wouldn't start I took the engine out and checked everything again including the...

Morning guys. I've been lurking here a while and often have a read up, but I seldom post if at all. I am posting today because I cannot find a relevant thread concerning my issues and I thought that it may help others once I get it running. A tiny bit of history as I know this isn't the...
