Diesel Fuel Injection System Help Desk

[mumuy]

Sir Dieseldude,

I came across a thread about adding 2t oil on diesel fuel and an amazing positive outcome from users particularly old model diesel vehicles. Even CRDI owners uses this motorcycle oil on their fuel system.
Being a diesel expert, can we have your thoughts on this matter? Will there be long term negative effect on the engine or injectors?
TIA

I've heard about this but never tried it yet. A lot of people say it's good. That's as far as I know.

sir dieseldude, question lang...

my ride is 3.5-mo, 3500kms-old kia carens 2.0 crdi vgt.

pagi1st start sa morning, typical diesel engine ang tunong--dinig mo rattling.. pero as it goes to its operating temp., about almost 1/2- of the guage.. unti unti din tumatahimik.

gusto ko lang i-clarify ung sabi ng casa sa akin: gun daw talaga diesel engine, kasi daw nagsisimula palang magcirculagte ang oil. tama po ba un?

or antay ko ang magiging resulta ng 1st pms nito next month (4 mo or 5000kms)

sir dieseldude,

what's the function of this plug located at the rear of the injection pump? this is where the fuel leaks. mechanic installed another used one (with copper gasket & teflon). still leaks but to a lesser extent.



plug location at the rear


here's the injection pump by the way.


TIA

This is a breather. Something is wrong inside the pump if this leaks.

Thanks very much sir. sorry but what are the usual internal parts that could go wrong with these pumps? TIA

Seals, lever pin, or even pump housing

Hindi pa ako nakakita ng Carens mag cold start. Pero sa palagay ko, normal ang konting ingay dahil naka advance timing and naka fast idle mode ang engine pag malamig. Hindi ito dahil sa insufficient oil circulation pag malamig.

siguro it has something to do na din sa settings ng engine management (ecu).. electronic ang throttle control. will clarify sa casa next month
