Bosch pump issues

[toseland]

mine sounded like a bag of spanners and smoked like a bitch when it was started from cold.,.. new set of cheapy glowplugs cured this completely,,


now have a nice set of bosch ones in there and its even better (only cost me 20 notes off fleabay)

[PartyJas]

Mine hunted and smoked on first start up on Veg and that was with new plugs. Soon cleared though.

Did a trick with some flour to see where it's leaking, will post pics when I'm home.

I know what the usual hunting/smoking is, but this is literally firing on 3. I'll try and get a video tomorrow

culprits then:

fubar injector have a look at the injectors pintles, if you cant see one sticking out then its screwed

or low compression on one of the cylinders.. rings most likely, << how is the blowby

[Matt]

I'm thinking injectors. They were sat for a couple if months before they were put on my car. I had no symptoms of anything before this pump, so it has to be something to do with the pump right?

Also blowby?

I think it needs to go something like this... Change filter, fix leak, double check timing (make sure all timing holes lock off perfectly) then get the advance spot on. Once all that is sorted, see how it is. Then if it's still there, look into changing the injectors.

It was running sweet before, so it must be something to do with the conversion.

[Matt]

Filter will be done in the morning, the leak... I have no idea still what part is leaking, just know where it's coming from now, I'll check timing in the morning also
