200tdi Lumpy tickover.

<< < (3/3)

Wanderer:
Thanks Disco Inferno,
That's my job for the weekend all being well.

I intend to bypass the lift pump, sedimenter bowl and fuel filter with a gravity fed tank while I test to see if it cures the problem.

If it does then I'm well away on the road to saving a fortune instead of having to go down the fuel injector pump.

The pipe.
I'm confident it doesn't go to anything to do with the the clutch. The only thing I can think is there might be something that uses it near the bank of relays under the passenger kick panel.
I can't think what would want a vacuum pipe though.

The faster tickover.
Really guessing.

Is it possible the plastic "grommit" has broken up and it holding the throttle cable back further than it should and has raised the tickover?

The vacuum pipe goes off to an actuator for part of the cabin heater, something to do with the recirc/fresh setting.

The fast idle thing..

I have had the cable loose as possible like slapping about.. no difference !

so far no one who has looked at it has any ideas other than the cable..

Wanderer:
Well Peeps,


It ended up that Snorkly had to have new springs fitted in the diesel injection pump.
It ended up costing me £185 after they checked out for leaks then stripped the pump down.
Both springs had broken. I'll post pics when I get around to sorting them out.
