Glow Plugs(White and Blue smoke)

[Doc Diesel]

Doc Diesel: Medyo OT: I have my 4 injectors nozzle replaced at your shop last August 2004 as the spray pattern is out of spec already. I just observed last week that the second nozzle assembly (parts screwed on top of engine block)is wet with engine oil. Apparently the oil is coming out from the thread between assembly and engine block. Is this a cause of concern or a minor job of tightening the assembly will do the trick? My ride is 2.8 A/T FieldMaster.

bring it back to our shop since it still can be covered by warranty and might need gaskets to tight seal it.

kung one-click sya dati baka yung voltage nung ipinalit mong glow plugs mas mataas kesa sa original. check the voltage load of your relay. dapat match ang voltage load nun dun sa voltage ng glow plugs mo.

orig glow plugs cost 1100 saq motorix. if u got urs at 500, it is a taiwan replacement. now if u got urs at 150 then it's the cheap one that last for a few months. before u change n blame the glowplugs, check nyo ulit yung relay. me kc i always blamed the glow plugs, change a few times in 2 years only to find out yung relay pala.

I agree with KCboy... just encounter this problem late 2004 and iniwan ko talaga yung Pajero para ma test ng mechanic sa umaga. And later on they found out that the problem is with the relay.. So binaklas lang nila and konting linis and ayos 1 click uli yung Pajero.

it's not always the glow plugs..

doc diesel: nakita ko sa website nyo na you will soon be servicing turbochargers too!

malapit na kaya yun?

:D

I'll already change the Glow Plugs still meron parin yung usok at rough idle sa umaga. Baka kailangan ng e calibrate yung Injection Pump

try to change your fuel filter baka madumi na and ipa-check mo fuel line mo baka may konting bara. maigi na rin ipalinis mo na injectors mo sa isang reputable shop.

i can`t help you
mean spar pkugs ?

Glow plugs are used only to preheat the fuel prior to starting. If your engine is smoky, check for any gasket leaks.

Check also your thermostat if it is allowing the engine to reach optimal temperature.

If the engine is smoky only when cold, then you can pass it off as normal.

we also experienced hard starting on our pajero pinalitan din ang glow plugs as adviced by the mechanic. after a year or so, the old sickness occured. siguro we heat the plugs three times before we start it.

napapansin ko rin medyo bluish na ang smoke that it emmits after starting. is it a sign that that the injectors needs to be calibrated?

[acenie]

Ok na ang L300 ko!
Ang ginawa niya lininis niya ang injection pump with repair kit, ngayon ok na. Wala ng usok at saka smooth idle na sa umaga.

Ok lang ba na e advance niya yung timing ng Injection Pump? kasi sabi niya para daw masmalakas. At manual lang ang ginawa niya sa injection pump walang machine, or kailangan ba na ecalibrate with machine ang injection pump.
per as of now ok naman yung ginawa niya, smooth and no white smoke pag umaga. pero enad vance lang yung timing. ok ba.

afaik when the injection pump timing is advanced a clear benefit is easy starting. the downside is medyo maingay na yung engine mo. did you notice this?

[acenie]

ok naman yung ingay! pero hindi kaya masmalakas sa Diesel kung advance timing?

Share ko lang that for 4d56T (turbo) the glow plug catalog is PM-75 make; HKT made in Japan. Use #12 na Llabe to remove & reinstall it, recommended to replace all 4 together.

Hope this helps.

sir acenie im experiencing the hard starting po evry morning.. hehe.. san nyo po pinagawa yan? and magkano po? tnx

[acenie]

Kung Hard Starting! e check mo yung Glow Plugs baka may dead na. kung ok e palinis muna na yung injection pump. Gastos ko lahat is 1400, 600 ang labor injection repair kit 800. Tapos tope and check lahat ng belts with oil seal change. Dito sa amin Laoag.
