As said try just tightening injectors. If still poor try leak off test as described earlier in thread. Gives you a much better insight to what the injectors are really doing. Does the engine sound like a misfire on 1or 2 cylinders or does the whole thing run rough vibration poor acceleration? :-/

I'd have to bow to Omegatoys greater knowledge, but to me, sounds like all 6 are running rough....

Just had another lightening thought. Sometimes the flow valve  gets stuck on the pump. Sounds daft but try tapping the rear of the pump with a hammer to free it off before you start, or even better do you have a small 2 pin blue or brown connector on rear of pump?

You didn't put your shopping under the passenger seat?

    It went ON the passneger seat for safe keeping. The sun was about to go over the yard arm & the sherry cupborad was bare so I'd been requested to buy a bottle on my way home.

I presume this is the solenoid in the pump?  If so, its underneath, not sure how it comes off, probably needs pump to come off? I think thats the 2 pin connector that comes off seperately.

I'll bring the parafin to get it started well

I do not consider beating it to death with Sammy Sledgehammer being classed as it winning...

No idea, I think its the valve on/in the injection pump?

I know what you mean - personally I would have stripped the whole engine side fuel system out from the original - as that worked.

If I was to go down the route of changing the injection pump over, I may as well have just changed the head on the original.  The injection pump is chain driven off the cam chain, not something I wanted to mess with.

[sassanach]

have you tried that injector yet?

For those with the software, here is the snapshot (needs to be copied to cosids/data/snapshots)

The thing that stands out to me is the Actual Injection Start which is 0, and the Desired Injection Start at 1000rpm is 4.1
