Yeah the brake cleaner in the intake and it will start right up no issues. I'm starting to go crazy with this. How much diesel should I get out the injector pipes as if I open number 1 and spin the engine I get a little drip and it is only little. But it will run once I spray abit of brake...

Also forgot to mention this was with the butterfly valve shut as I forget to hold it open so I suspect they could actually be abit higher. It was also a dry test. Thanks Richard

Good evening all So tonight I did a compression test with another tester I managed to get hold of and I'm getting the below results Cylinder 1 = 300 psi Cylinder 2 = 300 psi Cylinder 3 = 290 psi Cylinder 4 = 290 psi I'm not sure of these are good or not so any advise would be appreciated. I...

Famour Four in louth have been good with all my conversations and prices they have provided.

Hi Guys im a bit embarrassed but at the weekend I went to do a Compression test (Which didn't fit the glow plug hole) so I thought while I'm at it I will test the glow plugs while out the engine (Previous test was in the engine) and out of 4 glow plugs 1 didn't work at all and another had high...

Other thing to add is I dropped the oil and filter at the weekend and replaced it with nice new oils and filter after 10 minutes of running the oils was still nice and clean with that cold shine no black which makes me think it's not leaking diesel past the rings. When running it revs up no...

Thanks Bob what I don't get it with a little spray of brake cleaner it's starts straight up and runs a treat (excluding the white ish smoke). All I have done is had injectors redone and fuel injection pump and from taking it off to refitting a exchanged pump nothing had changed or turned. The...

Thanks Bob So I managed to finish work on-time tonight so went out and thought I would adjust the Injection pump to fully advanced. Still won't bloody start but at least now I get a little puff of smoke out the exhaust where before I had nothing. So what you think I just need to easy it back...

Thanks Steve I checked this morning after standing all night and there seems to be no air bleeding out the fuel system but still won't bloody start. In think this can't be that difficult I must be missing something obvious. Thanks Richard

Ok so I have check the glow plugs and they are working. I have connected two batteries together and tried starting it just winds and winds like there is no diesel so cracked injector pipes at the injectors and there is diesel. Started cranking again and still no start. My dad sprayed some...

Thanks Steve I will take all the advise and give it a full check over at the weekend it's doing my swed at the moment but I'm sure it will get there in the end. Here is a video of the smoking I was talking about before the injection pump rebuild...

Hi Steve When I crank and someone spray brake cleaner in the intake it will run no issues other then smoking abit. I had it running at the weekend for 20 mins after stopping it and leaving it 10 minutes it seemed to crank abit and throttle needed pumping a bit and it restarted but once started...

Hi all So I have took your advice and wired the glow plugs to the same side as the main wires on the ballest resistor (left) so it's direct 12v, I have also earthed the bulb. So first of all I measured all glow plugs which measured 0 resistance, then I connected a multi meter to the positive...

Thanks Steve that helps to confirm my thinking. I have attached the diagram that came with them so you can see what I was talking about. I will switch the wires over and see if that makes a difference. Many thanks

Hi All I'm new to the forum and have just bought my frist Landover. I have a bit of a question I have just had the injection pump rebuilt and the injectors. While that was happening I have upgraded the glow plugs to the parellal Brit part ones (DA1057) Now the vechile won't start unless I...
