stripy Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 when i start my 90 200tdi from cold it gives a a rev , as if i got my foot on a 1/4 throttle but dies to tickover stright away ,it has only just started doing this, is there a cold start solonide on the ip that is sticking? its fine when warmed up. i have been running on bio diesel for a couple of years & the odd drop of new veg oil, do you think the rubber seals in the ip has started to soften up & disintergrating?

western Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 There's a cold start capsule but not a electrical part, could be the veg oil is thickening overnight & slightly jamming/holding the ip in one position before full fuel pressure is obtained.

stripy Posted May 21, 2007 Author Share Posted May 21, 2007 hi western i'm running pure diesel at the moment, so it wont be the veg oil to thick. do you know how the cold start capsule works, is it a wax type like the old di transit lump?

stripy Posted May 21, 2007 Author Share Posted May 21, 2007 also will a 300 tdi ip fit into a 200, & will it mater if its from a defender or disco or do they all fit each other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 300Tdi pump without EDC may fit,not tried it myself so won't commit a 100% answer, not sure how the cold start bit works, I think it's internally in the pump body, may the IP needs a service. what age is the IP & is it the original pump for the engine ?? a service by a diesel specialist won't do it any harm & they will renew any suspect parts & ensure it's correctly set-up & operating at the correct pressures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JST Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 how many miles? does it do it every time or just when left for a long period - ie burning oil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripy Posted May 22, 2007 Author Share Posted May 22, 2007 i think it is the orignal ip i have had this engine 8yrs but the milage is unknown, the engine does not smoke or burn oil. the problem olny happens on cold start up. if i have the ip serviced can they do it on the motor or will i have to take the pump off?

JST Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 as far as i am aware you will need to take it off so they can rig it to a test bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 yep, needs to be off the engine, it can then be stripped/cleaned/rebuilt/new parts as required & bench tested/setup. you'll be looking at around £300 to 400 for this work, get the injectors done at the same time or fit replacement injectors.
