My New Connect

Postby Edd83 » Mon Jul 14, 2014 10:28 pm

Picked this up 2 weeks ago as a non runner for a very good price, so I thought I would post my progress here as I go. Its a T220 90ps TDCi on a 53 plate, 168k miles, MOT until FEB 2015 and Taxed until the end of the month...

Symptoms were non starting and glow plug light flashing. Not having a code reader that would work with the connect, I started off with a leak off test on the injectors while cranking the engine. When i did this, injector 1 filled twice as quick as the rest of the injectors. So ordered a new injector from dieselboy1978 as he was recommended on here, which I fitted with no problems at all. I then bought the F Super Diagnostic scanner on eBay to code the new injector which worked a treat. After this, she fired straight up and drove a treat :D

Next, came the black headlight mod. Although I'm not really happy with the drivers side as the lens is very faded but will get that done in due course. Treated it to a wash and polish too

I'm not really going to go mad with the mods, i will be lowering it 40mm with the axle flip method, fitting some new wheels ( Focus ST/RS ), Remap by Martyn @ Vantuner, and maybe a facelift front bumper after that along with a few other little details.

Here's one i took today next to my other Transit... ( Which failed its MOT today :( )

Will post up as I go :)
