Hello all.
I have posted in the past about my long running story.
I have a 2001 man diesel Jackaroo. Just replaced the injectors and all the seals, wouldn't start not even cough. Towed it to the Holden dealer and got the new injectors progammed, still won't start.
While at the dealers , they took off the engine cover to get the numbers off the injectors. Noticed water/coolant droplets over everything, not a good sign?
Towed my dead Jack back home. Asked questions checked forums, told to clean the oil pressure valve. Did this pulled the valve apart and cleaned it with carby cleaner.[noticed more water droplets while cleaning]
Reinstalled the valve, turned the key and it finally started. Idle was poor and blowing ###### loads of whiteish bluish smoke. It ran for about 15 minutes then cut out, now wont start again.
Was thinking of re doing the injector seals and replacing the cotrol valve. Would it be the seals causing the coolant to get into the oil, is there any special silicone that would help?
I was told to get the valve cleaned by a specialist ? Instead of using carby cleaner. Or have I got a cracked head?
The original problem was diesel getting into the oil when i purcheased the Jack. So when I went to replace the seals I noticed the injectors were totally stuffed from I think water going through and blowing out the injector tips.
Oh the joys of the 4jx1, great engine when everything is working . A total peace of ###### when things go wrong.
Regards Darren.
