many thanks wammers,ill check the boost pressure rise on revving later I did get the following last night,before I saw your post that is fuel temp 29.12 swg set point {mv} 3200 swg actual {mv} 2760 inj setpoint degrees 1.8 inj.actual degrees 1.9 timing modulation 73.31...

ta for all the replies I checked the valve timing just in case and it seems to be ok,was a bit worried as first time ive played with the camshaft etc. Ive changed the fuel filter and whilst it was off I put a jug under the empty fuel head and switched on the ignition. The pump operated for about...

changed the map sensor for another known good one and no difference ive attatched the nanacom and I get ecu no faults found water temp 88.95 air 23 boost 103.46 ambient 103.46 throttle...

just disconnected the small pipe that goes from the inlet manifold to the electrical unit on the filter head. everything is exactly no difference still revs to 4200 standing then stops revving and drops the revs same as with the hose connected

no black smoke ,i havent established if any pipes are collapsing but when stood it will rev to 4200 but gets awful fussy and then starts smoking before cuting down,have to lift my foot off the accelerator then gently put it down to get here to rev back up again

turbo wouldnt spin so got it off I had another turbo here so swapped it over ,joy of joy,my motor now has its power back. She idles lovely and pulls like a trooper up to 3200 then it sort of stone walls and i loose power and my revs go down. Any one have any ideas?

Ongoing Update, Wammers was correct the hose wasnt split but blocked solid and I couldnt even blow through it. I replaced it but although better the motor isnt right. Ive now taken the turbo off and it was seized. Played with it and Ive now manged to get it to spin. Ill probably find a...

thanks for all the replies,i have a few health problems so couldnt do anything last night but will try later to try and sort things out later on,at least now with your help i have a few things to look at. It just seemed strange for it to happen after id done the head,I was really concerned id...

1996,p 38 ,auto,diesel 2.5 ,auto. My p 38 finally boiled once too often and was getting air into the system,getting to "normal" temperature in 5 mins of idling so the head had to come off. Loads of visible cracks so had it pressure tested and it failed . Got another head ,had it pressure...

as the ole girl had been stood so long i failed to get the abs sensor out . by careful "wobbling" of the hub i managed to wiggle the hub out. Managed to refit it the same way and thankfully the abs works ok . Yep an old clarke 10 tonne bench press did the job ,guess i was lucky.Mind you the hub...

apologies been rough with this dreaded 100 day cough/cold. Jacked her up removed front propshaft ,drove it on blocks and all quiet. Took the rear off and attached the front ,tried driving it but after about 15 seconds the engine would almost stall . Think it musty be something to to with the...

dont know if it helps or not but on my p 38 the problem was the connectors going into the motors,if i jiggled them they would work so i stripped them out cleaned them tightened them up and refitted and 9 months later still going ok hope it helps. Oh think i remember someone saying if your pollen...

um,i bought a hub off ebay for q £10.00 to play with. My little clarke 10 press pushed it out no problem,tight yes but it did it. No releasing fluid as i wanted to know if it would do it or not. The hub wasnt an "in use " one as it was rusted to heck and back but the little press did it without...

i had something similar,eventually i stripped the eas compressor and one of the leads was touching the com ,sometimes. Hence the intermittent fault . May or may not be your solution but hope it helps

different approach,if your really comfortable and know of a tidy second hand parts supplier ,enquire about a warranty dont buy without one,just a thought as i found it cheaper to buy a complete 2.5 diesel engine with a 6 months warranty which worked out cheaper and faster to do just a thought

many many thanks james. Im in work tomorrow so hopefully over the weekend ill crack on once again many thanks

straight its great,noiseless,turn to right its noisy,straighten up its quiet.turn to left its noisy. Ive checke the uj and all good,happens on the pull so to speak and the overun. . Dip the clutch going down a hill ,same symptoms. Im wondering if being stood for two years in a barn, the owner...

I don't mind having a go but how does one decide which one is rumbling . Ive jacked up the front and cant find any wobble and the same with the rear,again no wobble.Do I have to wait until it gets bad enough to be detected or has anyone got a magical,ok logical way to locate which one. Ive had...

1999 diesel manual 123,000 hiya, now ive bought a 1999 p 38 and got it mot 'd etc. Had a few problems the bulk of which due to it being stood for 2 years. the farmer who had it died,the children lived abroad and the old girl was left in barn for two years. She's back on the road and going well...
