Will an incorrect timed engine cause more sound that it should..? considering the HDi's... I also heard that advancing the timing can prove to gain in a little more HP..

yes, I will record it and get back to you all people... infact the probes do exist as it do indicates an antipollution fault on the dash each time I start the car and when the engine cuts itself off, I do get the same message again.

2.0 HDi 110 bhp... well ok, am gonna check this out. and about the cut off thing..? because a friend suggested me that due to the catalyser missing, the sensor detects black smoke and hence cuts the engine..is it..?

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...

dunno if it's available in MRU though...

ehé, it's solved... :P the fuse of the fuel pump was faulty... just gat it short circuited until I replace it... HA, i needed to remove the pump and test it directly from the battery to ensure that it's working fine.. YES, it's lot's of work involved to unbolt that...

of course there's diesel... kinda some electrical problems i guess...!

Hello again. am sorry if i keep disturbing you peoples... but, the car is not starting now... the starter is turning, but the engine is not...! I went to a wedding and it went on fine but it didn't want to start upon returning home... it seems like the injector are not firing diesel..i...

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...

OK, gonna check this out...

Ok, there's no warning light.. everything seems pretty fine... but compared to before, acceleration is not the same... Ok, jarrus.. am gnna check this out.... and the black smoke, does it in some way affects the turbo...?

In fact, they retapped the 4th injector also because it was loosing combustion pressure... and after that the acceleration became lazy...:(

taking out the intake manifold.. thats surely loads of work... no it's not a boost leak... turbo has been throughly checked... it's like some kinda lazy acceleration....

Ok, Everything is fine.. And the latter is lot more smoother than before.. but, I noticed that there lacks some power and the latter is still purging out black smoke...not as before but it's still there... do I need to check the EGR..?

YES that's it... they are re-tapping the hole and gonna fit it again....
