Iveco Daily 2.3 2007 - Thick black / grey smoke - Unresolved #

Posted by Glen Strachan on October 31, 2013, 11:26 am

Year of Manufacture *: 2007
Engine Size and Code *: 2300

I have an Iveco Daily with a really heavy thick black/grey smoke only on acceleration.
It starts and runs ok. Customer has noted that it seems to be using a lot of oil, but it is full at present.
The smoke is so bad it is almost like it has a stuck shut air dozer but I have removed the EGR throttle valve so I have unmetered air straight into the inlet manifold and there is no difference.
I am guessing this must be an engine fault , a blockage in the manifold or inlet valve problems but wondered if anyone has had this problem before ?

it sounds like an injector fault can you do a leak off test?

Thanks guys, I have carried out an injector leak off test and whilst one is worse than the others, I am convinced this is a lack of airflow
The turbo was replaced 10k ago and looks ok, seems to be creating boost pressure plus I am running it with the intake pipe and throttle valve off so unless the turbo is leaking direct into the exhaust as against up through the boost side ?

Well, I am making some progress !
This is running EDC16C39 and I went to look at the injector codes, but the injectors appear not to have codes on them , rather they have group 2 numbers on them.
I am guessing that means that it has had an earlier ( EDC15 ) engine and injectors fitted

My problem now is how to work out which are the correct injectors and will they even work in this engine

Ok, well I have now had it confirmed, the Engine and injectors do not match the ECU
The customer has found someone online who can replace it all for £2500 so it is going away - One less headache

Thanks to you and Gavin on the Bosch course I don't think I would have come to the correct conclusion it - I learnt a lot
