help 300 tdi disco cutting out M.O.T on tuesday

(1/2) > >>

discosfa:
hi all 

after almost running out of fuel for only the second time (only spluttering now and then) made it to the garage put

TEMPER593:
It sounds like you've picked some [!Expletive Deleted!] up in 1 of the injectors after it ran out. Other than taking them out and cleaning um is the only thing i can say to try.  :-k Use to just blip the throttle to red line on the petrols to clean the system out not sure if it would work on the diesel.

As for the lift pump your is the same as mine annoying but goes the job.

Cheers TEMP

hi
managed to pospone the mot till thursday (runs out on friday tuesday was the only free space they had) started to get ready to do the sedimenter, cleaned all around it then noticed that the nut on top was all chewed up and rounded off(someone must have used mole grips on it)so 30mins later it still would not undo, so i bit the bullet and took it to the garage doing the mot and i have told them to remove it completely and bin it,blow the fuel lines out and then mot it as its needed for work
and i hope that cures it
and thank you to all that replied
