hey people wondering if you can give me some advice on behalf of me mate, its a series 1 escort with cossie management he has taken the engine out which was running fine to get the car resprayed, got it back and the only things done was a new timing belt and group a fuel pump, the timing we sure is right but do you need to turn the fuel pressure down due to the pump or any other ideas??? it does sort of start but hardly runs and loads of smoke (lots of fuel) ???? thanks

 

?

 

Hi pal what fuel pressure regulator do you have on it the cosworth one??

 

hi wardchris yes it is, ive tried setting it down tnt no difference im wondering if something else is wrong, also checked timing again and trigger ring on cam pulley for spark, it just aint firing correctly any ideas????

 

Have you still got the other pump ???

 

i think my mate has whys that???

 

Just thought of refitting the original if its not a big job and see how it runs ??? is it a full cosworth setup ie what injectors etc ??

 

What pump was on and whats been fitted pal ?

 

Was it a standard cosworth pump to an uprated one ? or rs turbo to cosworth ?

 

Bring it down my garage tomorrow i will set it up for you

 

it a new standard cossie pump from auto specialists and it is running dark greens?

 

hey paul how ya doing long time no hear

 

I shouldnt think you should have problems with that then your best bet is to have it set up ie fuel pressure etc. It needs setting right with a proper pressure gauge pal.

 

Engine advantages it is then i think cause bore washing is very likely at the mo...

 

Yes pal not good any way you could trailer it ??

 

i think me mate has got a flatbed truck sorted cheers dude.
