Hey mate, after removing the cold start, you'll have to tune the other screw in order to get the fueling proper...

try this, when starting the car, put the pedal down, so the car can start, and then tune it until the revs keep up to 800 or 1000

im not getting any fuel up to the injetors, i think the pump might be air locked, did you have to refill your pump?

 

[BrutalpingPT]

no i haven't... it was just take it off and that's it :S strange... after take it, i had to turn the fuel screw up 2 more turns, in order to get the fuel as I wanted to, so the turbo can work with the diesel it needs

 

[ASTRA TD]

have you got any pics of the pump when you did it please?

 

[BrutalpingPT]

no mate, actually of that specific point i dont... but i can take some pics of it now and post it here...

i did when i refitted a seal to mine, best thing to do is brim the fuel filter, then fit the pump and take off the feed pipe, then with a syringe or small funnel with pipe on it, fill the pump from that hole( it takes a while cause it fills slowly) then when thats done refit the pipe with a new copper washer so it doesnt leak air or fuel abd you should be ok dude.

another trick... if you want some nice low power on these engines, grab a fuel pump from a bmw 225D and put it in there it will run 1st and 2ng gear as you would never seen it...

anyway, some more pics today, and yet I have another photosession with ConceitoPT, they want to do a video report and some pics of the van. lets see how it goes and wait for the result

almost 1 year away, its time for updates...

won a prize at a tuning show...

and everything was good till 19th august 2012... I had my injector pump with no rev limiter, so i've failed 3rd gear and then left the pedal in the ground... so it went like 9000rpm and it blew my engine :S

after that went to lisbon the get my older engine tuned up, and like it was on my birthday, my brother gave me this gift.

2nd september it was running again

meanwhile i've bought another subwoofer and have made a specific box for it

and have been in the international track of algarve for 2 laps to see if it was good

video, best part is after the first lap...
