Hi All
I posted a thread some time ago regarding my Surf smoking and LSUK guy hitting EGR with a hammer.
300miles on and same problem regardless of hitting with hammer. IT still smoked while struggling to get power and running rough till over 40mph then all was fine.
I decided to buy a new EGR valve becuase I felt everything was linked rather than blank it off and in any case I'd probably have done the wrong thing.
I took the truck off the road because I feared that I may have received a prohibition order which would have meant 7 days to repair or s$$$$ vehicle.
2 weeks later and the part arrived I tried starting the truck before replacing the part and all that happened was that it churned our smoke but refused to start.
I changed the valve buy still it wouldn't start. Not having computer for weeks I couldn't contact anyone easily though i spoke to Tony via my sister.
Today I went to start it prior to removing the injectors but it just churned I did'nt even get the smoke this time.
The injectors are now out and off to Bob for checking or replacement hope this works. Any Ideas greatly received. wife wants to convert the thing into a planter this spring.
