Bit of a delay in update, life got in the way and is only a spare car/toy!
Fitted brand new brown plug injector and all is well no diesel leaks at last! EML light has also gone out so I guess I was just unlucky with my new white injector. Just...
Forget it is the best option. Gearboxes last about 80K miles so quite likely you will be getting a £2K bill soon after acquiring it. they also suffer badly with rust, water leaks and electronic problems.
Yeh footman James came out good, if it was much more I couldn’t justify the cost as a spare vehicle. Strangely the quote was less if parked on drive at home instead of on a farm lockup in a secure building!

Was that successful for you then, I don’t think I’d give it a go! I chickened out a purchased a brown plug one last night, once that comes I’ll swap the white one out and see I get refund or replacement.

Mark thanks, Yeh I wish I’d Just got the...
Hi thanks for all the replies,
Thanks Keith, I did wonder that, the 2 side guides on plug were left unchanged, then there’s a top/ or bottom plug guide depending on how you want to call it The brown plug the guide is to the right, the white plug...
Hi All, just to Clarify my year 2000 P38 2.5 DSE had a Brown plug 4th injector fitted and ran fine apart from was leaking a bit of diesel from the electrical wire outlet.
