Good , it's ordered already anyway, 3 holes 1.5mm thick and i got a full set with inlet manifold gasket bolts etc as well . Should be all good , hopefully it will arrive by this weekend, will try to pull the car to the mechanic this evening so he can assure me what exactly the problem is.

Hey Flossie , Thanks again for your time , ok I'll order one set . Yes just an o ring but don't have any , I'll see if I can get one might be less hassle than sending it back

Sooooo, After getting scammed £50 for someone to tell me that my injectors were good. i started doing the compression test on the first cylinder, it showed over 400psi then tried again but forgot to reset it , went over 800psi then broke (little seal inside the reset screw)... So I am back to...

Couldnt bring the injectors on time to the guy today, so nothing is going to happened today :/ will drop the results tomorrow evening.

Ok will try again the fishing then ! Alright , so what looked like had a problem was 3 and 4 . Anyway will try all that and post the results tomorrow. Thanks a lot for your time flossie , I really appreciate

Yes , about that , 3 came with the washers and one stayed in , any tip to take it out ? Tried fishing and magnet , no luck :/

Cool , so I'll do that , drop them in the morning pick them up even and then check the compression. Yes it definitely a diesel , that's why I had to order online , all the shops around me are selling only petrol ones. Aparently it go until 70bar which is 1000psi I think so should be plenty :)...

Ok so turned out I found a way to get super fast delivery for the tester and should have it tomorrow evening , Should I wait for that before bringing the injectors to the shop ? But I don't have new washers yet though

Ok, For the injectors I found a place and it is fairly cheap , I thought about bring them there tomorrow ( they are already out ), because I am pretty sure they are ruined anyway , and when I made the "injector slakening test" 2 of them did not change anything while 2 others made it almost stall...

Yes that's what I was going to say at the beginning but then realised I'll need an intercooler anyway, airbox had a quick look around and doesn't look easy to find . Turbo , I really hope that's not it and before bring it to the mechanic I want to get my injectors cleaned up just in case . Does...

Thanks a lot Flossie ! I'll check the turbo tomorrow and order the parts right now If it is a seal failure can we repair that or would I need a new turbo ?

So I don't have any then ? I will try to sort that out , any chance you could point me out in the right direction ? Any chance this is the cause of my smoking/leaking, going nowhere problem ? Could that damage the turbo ?

It looks like it goes straight from turbo outlet to inlet manifold

That's all I've got but we can't see the radiator because it is fixed on one side only and it was for the insurance so wonder if they would be to happy . ( I know it need a serious cleaning but it broke down before I had the chance ) Will take a better one tomorrow

Definetly not in front or behind the rad , and from the intake i got only one from the snorkel and the other to the turbo :S I'll triple check tomorrow

It might be, maybe that's why it is not working properly, didn't have time to bring them to the specialist yet , will do tomorrow. Guys, nothing related but is it possible to not have any intercooler at all ? Because I've got nothing else than the radiator and it looks like there is a space...

Hi everyone, So, Couldn't get my hand on a diesel compression tester but did the injectors check, 2 out of 4 made the car almost stall ( actually first made it stall completely) Now the 2 others did not make any diference whatsoever . It should make a difference isn't it ? Should I just bring...

Yes I know , but it is scaring me so much a bit of hope is good ! Maybe I just couldn't make the difference between diesel and water. But if the compression test comes out good with all 4 being as they should it would be it is not the gasket or head isn't it ?

Cool, will try this and the compression test tomorrow, just trying to find out where to get one as aparently all the one I found are for petrol engine only

awesome will check that and try to do a compression test before bring it next week . Is it safe to turn the engine on in that state though ? No risk to completely kill it ? How long should I slack each ? a minute or simply a few seconds ? Sorry if i sound dumb but just would like to make sure I...
