God do you lot read or only read every third line, the previous engine overheated, its the doner engine thats chipped and doner engine has sensor injector in as well, old engine had no injector with sensor fitted, i give up

i must have been dreaming that ive been driving around in my p38 for the last two years then, please someone pinch me and wake me up, or maybe my car is a special one off p38 but your the expert who am i to say otherwise, hahahahahaha

thought that only applied to petrols, chain stretch as ive said increased timing by one mil at a time, getting diesel at injectors, rules out stop soleniod, had my 550 amp sealy start and charge on it, tries but wont go, but less about me, this is p38_otms post, i want to know how he got on...

increased timing by mil one mil first then another one mil battery brand new starter brand new, leak off pipes new doing my head in

they are beru, checked them manually light up like a light house, even without them working would still start on easystart which is what i had to use two years ago

think you got the wrong end of the stick on this, when i bought my p38, 2 and a half years ago, number 4 injector sprung a big leak so i put in an ordinary injector after reading up a bit and the price of the injector with the sensor in it, and what i read said that the ecu would just default on...

i know, been running for two years with just an ordinary injector in, ecu just goes to default value

just put it on as i seem to have the same problem as our friend p38_otms not trying to hijake his post by any means ,new to this stuff, but will do thanks

Hi, I said I’d let you know when I got my Hawkeye scanner and this is what it came up withwas hoping for a bit more, back to the drawing board then it is lol

ok good luck, i didnt have any with it, i took of big pipe on end of intake manifold and sprayed it in there, what id give for a manual box right now lol

ive been watching this post with great interest as i have more or less the same problem as you, except mine didn't just die there and then, i changed engines as i found an enormous crack in the head of my old engine which ran fine but overheated when it felt like it, bought a doner vehicle...

ok thanks thats it then, i learned something, lol

sorry just been looking at pics of solenoid and there does appear to be only one o ring fitted , not quite sure how that would work, but will find out tomorrow as ive got a pump lying on the floor in my workshop lol

no total unrelated, it doesnt work that way, and yes there are two orings one i can see the othere should be under the lower collar, thats the one that shut your fuel off when the plunger goes down

it does look like that, just slides up and down the inner tube, but there should be an o ring on the bottom of the collar, probably still inside the top of your pump, get something hooked and fish it out
