SupporterNew head - leaks oil past the guides and seals
New genuine washers and orings (twice) doesn't leak into the rockers (dye test three times)
Injectors sent away for testing to make sure they aren't leaking (Heavy diesels destroyed one injector and refused to test the rest).
Bought 5 remanufactured injectors from Merlin in the UK - they come with orings and washers pre fitted.
5 injectors fitted and coded to the ecu by me using my nanocom
Car idled beautifully and revved smoothly when up to temp - then shut down overnight
Started on the button a couple of times
Started and moved out of the workshop this morning - idled smoothly.
Had it sitting in the drive while I washed it - started on the button and was smooth
Went to take it for a shakedown run and got 10 or 20 metres and it had no power and is idling like its running on 3 cylinders.
No oil in the red plug, never allowed to get bad so no oil in the ecu (opened it up and checked this afternoon)
No faults registered
I am at my whits end. It has been perfect. Changed the head due to diesel in the fuel and two potential overheating episode (had the old head tested hardness good and no leaks from fuel system

Turn ignition on 2 and fully push the throttle 5 times, the EML should start flashing then listen in the engine bay, can you hear intermittent hissing sound from the FPR area? ...wait untill EML stops then start the engine and see if it's the same or not, according to the results we'll speak again

SupporterThanks. I have purged the system three times. Once before starting after putting in the new injectors and then twice more after it starting running rough. Made no difference at all.Originally Posted by sierrafery

SubscriberLong shot but have you replaced the air bleed valve at the fuel filter ? AFAIK the only way to determine if it’s good or bad is to take it out and cut it open. Of course then you’ll need a new one anyway.

I think you'll find that's a water drain.
If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.
