Hi all - I got myself a 96 plate tdi 300 manual disco - so fAr I've fixed the central lockin - blanked egr - removed cat - serviced it - emptied rear crud catcher by tank - here's the faults I'm left with -
1- don't like starting even wen hot ( I've bought new glow plugs just avnt fitted em yet )
2 - after I'd fitted the new down pipe (cat removal) I seem to ave done somethin to the rev counter as it now bounces around however it feels but I can't seem to find the cable
3- above 3000 rpm it feels like some one is switching the turbo on an off in a haphazard sort of way ?????( it's got the slightly later electronic pump on it )
4 - a few times on tick over the revs dropped to about 400 rpm an no matter wot I do to the accelorator it makes no change untill about 15 seconds have past then the rpm returns to 750 ish an all is ok again (feckin irritating wen u can't go at a green light )
It has got 20 ltrs of high quality bio in 60 ltrs of normal fuel so I don't know if that could be causing some of these probs but kind of doubt it as I ran my navara on it 100% for the last 3 years till it threw a rod
Any help would be realy appreciated as noone seems to b able to help
