Can anybody help?

Postby petebrennan58 » Sat Aug 19, 2017 6:26 pm

Recently i bought a transit 2.5 Di Turbo Camper 1998. Drove it and it was GUTLESS.
So i removed he turbo and fitted a new T3T04E Turbo, changed the exhaust manifold, I changed from epic fuel pump to a bosh mechanical fuel pump and front mounted intercooler. I removed all EGR valves and all that goes with it and blanked it all off. I fitted different inlet manifolds.

And it's still GUTLESS! All I'm getting now is a bit of bluey/grey smoke on tickover.

Can anyone help? What am I not doing?

Are you saying it won't rev?
Did you pin the timing then advance the pump a touch? Full details are on here, use search, s'what I did.
Did you increase the fueling on the Bosch pump?
Do you have a boost gauge?
Add your whereabouts, one of us may live round the corner.
