jaytez2110 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 my freelander L series diesel starts but runs really rough and blows black smoke whilst doing so it will then rev up on its own a few times then settle down and tick over fine for a few minutes then the process starts again could this be injectors or something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh NZ Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Sounds like over fuelling to me. As a matter of course, get the injectors checked at a specialist and they can tell you if they are duff or just need refurbishing. Also check there are no restrictions in the air intake such as delaminating hoses (on the inside) or kinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Check the cheap stuff (hoses etc.) first, injectors are expensive to be fiddling with if you don't have to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EggNChips Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 What he says ^ Check intercooler hoses first. Also there's a wire on the No1 injector that's prone to chaffing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
