You ideally need to get a new injector and them all properly recoded. Having said that, when one goes, the rest are always close behind.
Get the alternator sorted too, that can cause all manner of issue, and can damage the ECU, and other components.
progerss report
a transit specialist read the codes today knock threshhold code has gone since new injectors went in so has electrical code,
i have two codes now and they are
low pressure at injector-or rail?
and high pressure at injector- or rail?
a leak of test was done in my presence with ive never seen done before so i was interested to watch, barely ten or 12 drops leaked back from any injector and the all leaked back in a very balanced way e.g the same amount each, the tester assured me this was a very healthy test and it would seem the injectors seem ok..
The engine was running for 5 mins during this test, there was lots of bubbles coming up the clear test pipes though,from every injector, and a couple of the clips were the pipes connect to the injector were found to be suspect this would leak air back in to the filter and then recirculate around the injection system apparantly and cause crap starting and running,
so a brand new set of return pipe and all associated clips are on the way,
and if that does not work the guy said new pump, i mentioned the (imv) he asked me to fing out more about it, were is it on the pump and is it repairable and were would i get one
i can get a re con pump for 400 which seems like a steal..
all advice appreciated were could this air be coming from the pump?
