Why buy a new EGR when a Allard EGR delete pipe is a 1/3rd of the price?
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

To be honest I dont know anything about diesels and I didnt know about deleting the EGR valves out.I phoned GSF they had a EGR on the shelf and I just thought i would cure the problem but turns out I was wrong  :sad: Do you think its still worth buying one as I was going to buy one of a guy on here but now Ive got a new EGR is worth doing it still plus ive still got to find the problem.I think my next step is a fuel pump the one in the tank.

Older diesels had a fuel shut off solenoid not sure if they do on the PD's but if fitted it might be your problem.

After considering setting fire to my mk4 derv as I had a issue with it cutting out at random and it then restarting and driving fine things finally started coming to a head.It was getting really bad as in one day driving back from Derby it broke down on my about 15 times but would start back up which just about got me back to my house.At this point after trying all kinds of things and replaceing different parts I was ready to go and buy another car and just f**k this off for what ever I could get for it.But I decided to give it one more chance and took it to the lads who sorted my 16v out many moons agao when I was having simlar problems with that.Anyway thank the Lord they sorted it and im a now a happy man but the problem was pretty stupid to be fair to the car.They installed a clear fuel line from the fuel pump which indicated to them masses of air in the fuel system which was causing the car to cut out so they went straight for the fuel pump in the tank.When they removed the 3 screws and lid it turned out that some pratt had put the fuel lines the wrong way round  :laugh: so they swapped them back round and the car is a flyer powers all back in the higher gears and it pulls really well.Can belive all the different people that had seen the car and ex amount of money spent and these boys sorted it in about 3 hours anyway happy days I can now start makeing this car look pretty  :grin:
