I had to laugh today, when one of the lads walked back into the workshop, after driving off only a few moments earlier,(in the vehicle in discussion).
Guess what..............
It broke down with what looks like a fuel delivery issue. Talk about the "kiss of death". I mean what are the chances?
I blame you Bryan (with a "Y")
Anywhooo
From memory, when I performed the "mod" I introduced the return pipe inside the swirl pot. This would have the effect of maintaining an abundance of fuel inside the vessel.
A new pump/swirl pot assembly had been fitted already, before this extreme measure was taken. The return flow rate appeared to be very healthy, it was just that the jet of fuel would not penetrate the small one way valve.
I will post the outcome of this current chapter as & when it's fixed.
Thanks for the kind comments Bryan. I don't know about being more knowledgeable than you or anyone. You have to realise that I don't post about my screw ups & blond moments
Cheers for now
Dave
