my HF (3-28MHz) radio. Any suggestions on how the make the common rail fuel
injection system quiet in RF terms?

I take it you've an RF choke in the power supply to your HF radio, Chris? If
not, that'd be my first move, also make sure the antenna cable is routed
rearwards with the antenna on the rear of the vehicle, as far from the ecu's
etc as possible.
You could always give me the engine and box in exchange for a nice 3.9 V8
and autobox.... my 110 would go nicely with the torque from a TD6! ;-)

I was really lucky, I only had to wait 3 weeks for it!!

A friend of mine has CMV, not bad for a completely mad vet, either!

Thanks Gordon, MY HF Radio (Icom 706Mk2G is powered from a second batter
with a 100Amp choke (and a seperate on for the beer fridge) I am using a
CodAN (SELF TUNE ANTENNA) mounted at the front of the vehicle. It has
quietened down a fair but by better earthing. But as soon as i tought the
throttle ithe noise increases, as soon as I back off it disappears. PS Its
a 2003 model not a 2005. (same motor but)
