thanks rail road , i thought i had timing spot on but will try to get timing pins for it and recheck and im going to see diesel specialist during week to see if he can diagnose it , if it was injector would it use more diesel thanks also if it was diesel knock would it do it when you rev engine as mine does not

hi thanks for replies still waiting for pins but i think i would recheck timing

i have give it a good thrashing but still the same , if it was injector making it knock would putting some cleaner through it do any good . i would like to try to get hold of some injectors just to try

hi with reference to my last thread iv checked timing and is ok checked wiring to no1 injector and it is showing 95.6 ohms but been told to test to earth do i still keep it on ohms setting and what is reading suppose to be thanks

hi sorry to sound thick but what is infinity as not very good with electrics thanks and merry christmas

thanks for reply its digital multmeter will have a look saturday , so if it does not show anything then wire is ok is that right

thanks dieselnut done earth test today and as far as i could deduce there was no reading but another thing is can you do leakoff test on L series engine also is there suppose to be alot of diesel leaking back

yh thanks dieselnut i have been told it could be injectors i will have to get them checked at diesel specialist dont know anything else it could be

hi just took injectors out but number 3 is stuck solid , the rest came out ok , tryed twisting it but wont budge and have not got puller

thanks scobro but have got grips on it and gave it a good twist and it started to move and came out but think copper washers are stuck in as only two have come out and tryed small pick but doesnt seem to budge

hi thanks for reply yh probably do but cannot afford some thing like that i got some long picks but still cannot get them out even if they are in there when i shone torch down they didnt look like they were in there

hi i dont think they are as i shone torch and could not see copper down there but will get file and see on monday

hi have put back together and still the same

hi railroad its mechanical injectors with electronic pump , bloke said that injectors were fine , i have changed timing solenoid but do not know if it was any good as came from scrappy is there a test you can do to this also when you rev car the engine quietens down

hi railroad did you say that the injector with wire must be fitted to number 3 injector and what difference does it make

hi railroad the noise seems to come from no3and 4 cylinder

thanks for reply but it was on number 1 injector when i bought car , would it do any harm to try it on number 3 as dont want to b***** engine up, every one else says n01 , i think injectors have been out before i bought it as no washers in ,

hi thanks railroad the wire is tight when in bracket but have put video on of engine running

youtu.be/j9BZLQJtrrQ

thanks railroad the stutter was the video not the engine as it ticks over and i have only had car since september and noise has been there all that time do you think it timing solenoid , i dont like to use car in case it causes more damage and wire you said you have seen for lifter sensor were they on rovers and mg thanks
