pmsl what was the fault?

Post 735173 by T5frankie on 2014-09-13 21:12:34

[QUOTE=theflyingbrick;735167]pmsl what was the fault?[/QUOTE] suspected fuel pump not delivering fuel, got it home took the fuel pump cover off to find that the tensioner had gone and the belt was loose so fitted a new one, timed it all up and still wont fire

Post 735288 by martin_r_smith on 2014-09-14 15:24:21

Sounds to me like it's not timed up properly, even 1 tooth out can be a massive difference in injection timing. I would move it one tooth back first then try one forward, then go 2 back ect ect. Eventually it should fire then you can plug it in a dynamically check the timing.

Is all running lovely now timed up to -0.5% the marks on the pump were way off, not bad purchase for 200 quid LOL

Post 735299 by martin_r_smith on 2014-09-14 17:47:16

Nice one, the marks on the pump are crap, it's common practice to set it to them then advance it 1 tooth. Usually gets you pretty close. Hell of a bargain for 200 quid!

No mate the mark was about 10 teeth out
