cheers
sadly I think its now a scrapper
connected CLIP and good pressure in rail and engine speed when turned over
no errors apart from the ones its always had regarding thermo plungers Etc.
tried little bit of easy start. no difference
disconnected pipe from intercooler to EGR, no difference so connected back up
so thought I would swop 1-4 & 2-3 injector cables
did this and was a small sign of trying to start, little bit easy start and it tried to catch even more
eventually it started,
Great I thought, was running a bit rough as if on three cylinders and then it cleared and
ran ok but did not seem to have much power
I did fit a new fuel filter so rough idle might have been due to this
Then I saw the plume of white smoke appearing at the rear of the car. B*****ks !
thought I would take car outside to save filling the garage up
was hoping that it might clear, I know unlikely due to it being water in chamber
but maybe hoping there was some un-burnt fuel in exhaust (not sure if that's white or not)
when outside it stared quickly but seemed to lack any power
gave it a couple of quick burst on the accelerator and the crappy thing started to run away !
loads of white smoke , of course would not stop with the key so quickly stalled it against the garage wall
not tried starting again, probably not a good idea
oh well it was a good learning experience and I now know how much work is involved in doing
a job like this
replacement grand espace needed
