NON VAG diesel issue. :lipsrsealed:
I currently have a Pug 306 HDi in my possesion :shocked: :whistle:
it gets left a week or 2 without being ran :huh:
when it does get started it BELLOWS bacl , thick black sooty smoke out. :sick:
Then when taken for a run is eventually turns to a thinner grey smoke, but again bellows out a huge cloud of greyer smoke for ages - enough to make the car behind dissappear :grin: :laugh: :evil:
eventually it clears itself to a standard smokey old pug diesel kinda smoke :smiley:
So, is this just cos its getting left week in week without use ?
thanks in advance
-
sounds like it could be the injectors leaking, allowing diesel to drip into the bores, hence all the smoke on start up
-
cheers, the injectors were allegedly sorted a while back.
just a shame theres no poke to go with the smoke :laugh:
-
timeing out ?
or just a crappy old french car
-
Injectors leaking and then the excess diesel being burnt off.

Which Scania V8 are you partial too? I don't think you can beat a chipped 144 530 with straight through 6" stacks or 5" slash cut side pipes.
Chuff, could also be a carbon build up in the turbo if the previous owner drove it on a lot of short trips at slow speeds

snap on the engine, but mine was sorced from a knackerd harvister and has been fitted to something a littel diffrent. it's in a pickup well been wedged it into the fat arse yanky bus that is a ford XLT 450 :smiley:
half wish hadnt started the swap as still snagging and its not reliable yet but the engine is epic compared to the nasty powerstroke that was in there, just a LOT of tweeking still to do.

You want to put a set of marine injectors in it, advance the timing 3 degrees, put an oversized borg warner turbo on it and get it chipped, that will up the power a lot, a mate had a 144 530 and did all that, when he put it on a rolling road it made over 900 hp at the wheels and over doubled to torque.
What you done/doing with the powerstroke you took out? A mate of mine is thinking of buying an Omega to put a big diesel engine in like a powerstroke or a duramax, so if your looking to selling it I'll see if he wants to buy it.

the powerstroke that came out is scrap :sad:
it'll run if you can get it started but sounds awfull, compression vairies from low to none runs on 5 or 6 pots and made just about enough power to limp the truck, hence why it got riped out
