--- Quote from: "Miniman" ---Wow man now how is that for a strange day. I today have been to newcastle for my 200tdi discovery. So now I have mine at the garage waiting to be taken out BUT...... :cry:
The engine sounds like its chuffing abit like head gasket gone between cylinders or valves leaking so on monday we are going to do a compression test....
--- End quote ---
dont bother with the comp test,
start it up & take the oil filler cap off,if its chuffing out there the ehadgasket will have blown between No4 cylinder & one of the pushrod holes :wink:
Miniman:
Already done that its fine. I was thinking more of a burnt out exhaust valve or inlet valve
Xtremeteam:
could be injection pump timing out as mine did that when i first rebuilt it
Miniman:
May be but this has been run as a family car for the last year. Dont you think a compression test would be a good idea first before I go down the line of messing with the pump timing. What ya think.

Hi all, just to add a bit on the subject of downpipes, when we put a disco 200 into my old na we trimmed two inches off the corner of the passenger footwell and got longlife exhausts to make us a three inch stainless system that exited out the side behind the passenger door, they also made me up some turbo and intercooler pipes, all for under 200 squid... It sounded real sweet and went like stink... still see it being driven around everyday too :wink: cheers all...
Bell housing wise we just removed one stud and tapped a new one in the right place.....
