Before I start on the injectors.....

Here is a picture of the inside of the ECU.

Attachment 165549

Nice and clean. This is not the first time the ECU has been opened, judging by the marks on the lid and the gray sealant smeared on top of the plugs. It now has nice clear sealant.

I tried the F10 voltage came up with nothing. With the fuse out, and the engine running the pump draws 7.36V
I'll have another look a bit later.
With the volt meter set on 200mv the reading jumps around 00.20 to 00.30 I do not know what this means!! Time to buy a mV meter.

What fuel pressure testing gear works with the TD5? Stuff from ebay?
Where do you connect it?

First half of the vid shows you to do earth tests, then how to understand an oscilloscope output on how worn the pump may be.

FPR, you need a pressure gauge. Vid above shows the complications involved(for the average person).

ie. click the Youtube link I posted.

Never done it personally, but I would have thought a simpler setup to LR Toolbox's method would have been to tap into the quick connector on the inlet side via a quick connector setup.

Hi this one worked for me it's a bit cheap but for domestic use it is fine, has all the adapters to suit most make and models. For the Td5 it fitted inline on the FPR.

Between the head and the FPR?

I'm pretty sure that's the low pressure(return) line.

Follow the RAVE diagram to be sure .. from tank to the FPR inlet should be the high pressure side.

My guess tho is that will be before the regulator, so more of a test on the fuel pumps ability to pressure the fuel enough to the regulator.
That's probably why Chris at LR Toolbox(link) removed the temp sender and installed the adapter into that area.
(I think) .. this will be measuring the regulators ability to 'regulate' at whatever the value should have been.

Ah yes. I see what you mean. How am I going to get my hands in there? My Belly gets in the way LOL.
Tomorrow I'l measure the amps across F10. The ammeter only goes to 10A so if I get a number around 8A I guess that will indicate the HP part of the pump. If the ammeter melts in my hands.... I'll wear leather gloves!! Pump ok

Why would you risk to ruin the A-meter when you can measure mV as i explained... that method is tested, i found 2 pumps working only on LP with it

The brand new meter, initially gave a reading of 19mV. subsequent readings were 0mV. Interestingly this meter gave a voltage of 14V across F10. The old meter gave 7.6V

I think it is time to order a fuel pressure kit.
