The OH has a nissan terrano 3 litre and its been running a bit wierd. Its only a red farm dog, its used by everyone, and as normally happens with equipment that everyone uses - the next time I have to use it, its f***** somehow.
This thing smokes and smells like a fairground generator, white smoke with mostly diesel vapour in it. Doesnt sound like its missing - its got a rotary pump, all injectors when loose seem to have the same fuel and pressure. I have checked the turbo hoses and pressure.
It wont rev over 1500 but has torque all the way to that - I cant think what the hell is wrong - probably some dodgy sensor.
Has anyone got any ideas.
When I drive it people cheer cos they think the red arrows are coming - they sit and wait for the red and blue smoking cars coming.

My old Trooper started to smoke a bit and then kept running when you turned it off , then it would accelerate on its own, turned out it was the turbo feeding off the sump oil, could this be the start of the same thing?
-
compression valves turbo mas air sensor if it is disconnected and runs the same that is what is wrong
does it start alright oil bypassing the rings that is just for starters oh and head gasket :farmer:
-
gona try and blow the air sensor hoses through tonight me thinks - cheers.
just gota put the pump back together on this fricking tractor - I know mechanics, but ll this electronic s**t does me fricking head in ;)

An old lorry I drove years ago did this when the fuel filter clogged up - 'rev-limit' dropped fairly quickly over the course of the day and the next day it wouldn't start.
put a new filter in and it was right as rain.

Think I'll 'reknew' the filters too with a bucket of meths mixed with diesel and a bit of banging :)

Probably bang the filter and a huge lump of clay falls out -- -
