hi there , ive replaced the head on my 2.4 and put it all back together, she starts and runs but will not pull. on a pretty steep hill in l she was down to about 2.5mph at full throttle and on the flat and level struggles above 50mph.
any suggestions?
im currently running injector cleaner through her and i dont think the brakes are sticking on.
thanks for any help people can give me on this.

Check your vac pipes to the turbo, make sure they are all connect and the right way round.

ahh cheers, i think i got them all on in the right place but ill go thorugh em and have a good look, theyre all quite similar looking so it could be that, i hope it is!
the turbo light comes on at about 3k, i dunno if thats normal or not.

Had the same prob after my head was done, mech got the vac tubes on wrong way round, turbo spooled up and light came on, but no boost.

My turbo comes in around the 2k mark which I think is normal, 3k seems a bit high.

3k is definitely too high. The 2.4 is practically topped out at 3k.

had to do the brakes on my scimitar truck instead cos they started making that horrible metal noise so ill be swapping the pipes on sunday i reckon

[227angrydonkeys]

right then lol , ive had a look at these pipes and i think they look to be in the right places, but im thinknig theyre not, i have a diagram but its for the direct injection engine.
i dont suppose theres anyone in west sussex, horsham crawley area with a 2.4td who wouldnt mind me popping and looknig under their bonnet and takigng some pics of where all these pipes run to this weekend?
cheers

There's a diagram on the page below, about 1/2 way down, showing all the vac pipe connections - does that help?

also here on the Australian site -

ahh those are the diagrams i started looknig at before i realised thats the direct injection engine and its a different layout to the efi one, you can see the differences in the top two photos, i have the engine shown in the top photo on the australian site but the vacuum diagram relates to the engine in the bottom of the two pics.
if there is a similar diagram anywhere for the efi that would sort it.
thanks for the help though chap
