ok so the day came that the old engine came out of the 130 today :D
swapping it with another td5 but with only 130k on it not 330k. Now do i need to or should I swap injectors between the engines so it matches with ecu????? will it still run ok or enough to go to the mechanic and get it all remaped again?
have installed new water pump, exhaust manifold gasket, turbo gasket etc, egr blanked.
anything else important that im forgetting?

Dont swap the injectors over.
They are 200kms newer, they may be different (you dont say if EU2 or EU3 so maybe not compatable)
The engine will run happily enough to get the new codes in. The codes are for fine "trimming" of the motor and wont prevent it from running.

anything else important that im forgetting? YES the oil pump bolt

:twisted:
