golf mk1 diesel smokey

[gldgti]

i just replaced the nozzles in my injectors and the motor is sweeter than ever! smoother, more apparent power, power starts lower in the rev range and less smoke.

what nozzles did you put in? (DN part number is particularly relevant )

I dont know the part no. but they were a japanese equivalent to the bosch vw nozzle. Thats what i was told. I could find out for you.

...and also where did you get them from? That could be useful to some and me too.

So, most of the smoking came down to worn out injectors, as expected.

I have to admit, you guys getting me inspired with these mk1 GLD's, I have to buy one before they disappear.

Im on holidays atm (and loving it!). I'll find out when im back home. The shop i used is in cambelfield and is called BSP Diesel. I left a set of worn injectors with them to rebuild and they were ready the next day. Very happy overall!

cool - just find out if you can the part number of the new tips (it can tell us a bit about htem, and knowing what size tips give what performance is useful )

thanks for the info .its all good now and it passed the pit inspection so now its a daily driver.on the injection pump there is a screw with a locknut on the side of the pump. this controls amount of fuel .i unscrewed this bolt which slows down the rpm so i increased the idle screw to keep it running until no smoke .took it for a drive and it only had a maximum speed of 60 km. so i screwed it in half a turn at a time until it ran at usual top speed and now no smoke cheers
