I thought you had it running by your other thread Which cams did you use How much did the machine shop charge to bore the injector ports

Does the compression result at 220 bar seem correct?

I have a video of the engine running anyone know how I can upload it here to let other have a look and listen.

I'm wondering if the battery light has something to do with my problem. Wasn't there before.

Anyone going over to Dublin soon, I have TDCI head there to collect... if so my contact details are below.

Yes I've had this running, Used the tddi cams & did not need to bore injector bores as the the injector heights and injector tip protrusion was exactly the same.

Are the tdci and tddi cams different ???

[angeleye]

i would put your own cams back in,,it could be if this head has come from a siezed engine cam lobes may have moved on there spline,unlikely but it has been known,,they are just sweated/freezed on to cam splines, are you sure you have timing right can be difficult to get right relucter ring slot,,and check the crank sensor holder isnt cracked/broke,

Thanks angel eye its definitely worth a shot. I really want to sort the battery light on problem first.

I've upload a video of the van running just need to upload this onto youtube and put a link here for you guys to have a look.

Hi, Bambi might be interested in your head that you have for the tdci. Just waiting to see if anyone is going across toy our way.

HI All just checked with ford and the cams are exactly the same.. for a tddi and tdci.

[eddy dar]

Had the crank pin located in the wrong position in the flywheel. The tdci have a pin with an extra pip. Shitty transits. Going back to german stuff far superior.

I was going to say won't the cams in the tdci be different due to the position sensor needing a pick up point, which I would have guessed would have been missing on the tddi cams but after reading previous posts obviously not.

Looking for Catcar.info https://www.catcar.info/ford/?lang=en&l ... I3Mg%3D%3D
inlet and outlet camshafts have only one finis number for all 2,4 models.

Just a quick note on the "230 bar" and "220 bar" reports: the gauges used either have no means of showing - or have tiny decimal points. The figures :22.0 bar" and "23.0 bar" make perfect sense....
