ok then you will have clear picture.... in experienced there will be ahead the machining of head...but check it first
YES that's it...
they are re-tapping the hole and gonna fit it again....
Most of the problems sorted out except that the engine is producing black smoke...
guess it's because I got the EGR disconnected as it produced even more smoke when the valve was connected...it's stuck I think...
next was to replace the cam driven water pump by an electric one..
so as to provide better cooling of the engine...
is it worth for the HDi because i noticed that temperature quickly reached 90 C and stayed as such...
this is why I want to upgrade the water pump...
is is worth..?
Sorry again if I ask too many questions...
but, I have my engine spitting small amount of oil upon high revolutions...
I think that it comes from the turbo and it do cuts itself off if revved too high...
engine will start again after some 5mins..
there is also some kind of heating effect smoke coming at the back of the manifold
when the engine cuts itself off...I also do get the engine management light also but goes away after a few times.
NB: I removed the catalyser also...
can anyone help me...though the car is running fine..
but only wish to clarify those bits of doubt...
That won't be the case,
your engine isn't modern enough to have the required sensors to do that, and yours is a diesel,
Lambda sensors have been on petrol cars for years, but on diesels it is a very recent thing,
Plus the CAT doesn't cut your black smoke much if at all, that's what DPF's are for and your engine never had one, and removing the cat won't cause problems either
I reckon it could be a faulty MAF or a buggered turbo
You need to get the fault codes read on the ECU for a better understanding of what has happened
Really?
I know 2 way cats were in, but lambda probes? I didn't think they came in till quite recently on diesels
