Badger90 Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 hi all i did the fuel pump tweak on my 200tdi and few weeks later on my brother 300tdi, well when i did my truck i was muppet and forgot/lost the standerd settings, i did it properly on my brothers and today he wanted it back to standerd, i had a bain wave to get the lost standerd settings, for the smoke screw i noticed that where the thread is inside was 2 little groves. so i looked my brothers one and the screw tread was under the groves, so i got a little nail and it sat in both grooves fine. so i did the same to mine and wound it out intill it did the same as brothers truck. the diaphram is easy the dot facing to the rocker cover for the start wheel i allso lost the settings, so that nail i used for the smoke screw put in the gap in the star wheel with the point in the far corner and the flat end in the center and marked how far up the nail the center bit went vice verser for mine and mine was lower much lower then i though was stander, so i mached it with the mark that was standerd on brothers 90 and it worked a treat. arse about face way of doing it, just dont be a muppet like me a loose the standerd settings. has anyonw got any advarnce on the screw at the rare of the pump? i belive you have file the welding away to get the sleve off to get to the lock nut? cheers then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 the diaphram is easy the dot facing to the rocker cover Not necessarily - of the 10 or so I have been into there have been 3 or 4 different places for the dot, depends on how the thing is assembled I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger90 Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 May I please ask You why he wants it back to standard? Is there any danger involved doing this tweak? Marius there was judering and it was cutting out for about 3-4seconds so put it back see if it was the tweak but it wasnt was the fuel cut off plug, i must of pulled it out when tweaking no theres not and yes there is, if you do the tweaks at 180degrees smoke screw, 90degrees diaphram, 90degrees for the star wheel and you will be safe. you can do the screw at the back of the pump which is much easyer i heard!!. here a tread to prove it! if turn up to far and have to much smoke your engine will happely go bang! http://forums.lr4x4.com/lofiversion/index.php/t24415.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimAttrill Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 It's easy. You look at the spindle and can easily see the wear mark on it. Put it back with the wear mark to the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fender1234 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 when you adjust the diaphragm say 90 degrees, do you just turn it or lift out and then turn it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
