TDI mpg vs engine temp

[HarryMann]

..or the injection time-profile is oop de swanny

Bent rod or valve for me luckily I'm getting a rebuilt engine

[HarryMann]

so hows that happen then?

[lloydy]

You haven't heard?......
Basically I hydro locked the engine this time last year, started off just sounding slightly rougher when cold and has now got the stage where if I rev the engine is misfires and pours out white smoke. Comp test shows 70psi down on number 3 cylinder. Also down around 30bhp and a gob of torque. Still drives ok though, so getting a engine rebuild with all new bearings, rings ect. I'll then get it back and go over the top and build it into a 'turn key' engine with all new ancillaries and then swap em over?
And yes, it will get bling'd up too. All parts beadblasted, some bits zinc'd just can't help myself....

[HarryMann]

just can't help myself....

obviously not..

Wasn't when you were down in Devon at Cullompton when it played up early one moring and I said wet of the wetness type caused it?

===

Anyway, look fwd to seeing that graph rise up and surprise us all... by one or two mpg

[lloydy]

Yep, all from that devon morning and a unsealed snorkel letting the rain water in

[HarryMann]

You shall have to explain that unsealedness sometime, as I thought they all dealt with water properly, as in german style.. 'thought about, designed a round, dunned dat!'

[lloydy]

the person who did the engine conversion didnt seal the pipe in the D pillar to the plastic snorkel, just put them in the same vecinity . So the pipe filled with water.
