Testing turbo boost and fueling
Testing turbo boost and fueling
I want to check the turbo boost and the fueling on my 200tdi.
It doesn't seem to smoke so I don't think it's over fueling, and it stops straight off when I turn the ignition off so the injectors don't seem to be worn. I set the injection timing when I replaced the timing belt earlier this year.
I think it is lacking in power at higher revs and certainly struggles on even gentle hills in 5th. Low down grunt seems to be OK.
One other thing is that the temp gauge rarely gets past the bottom of the white section - not sure if this is normal or indicating that it is running cool?
I know I'll need a boost gauge (any recommendations on where/what to get) but not sure how I can check the fueling.
I'm happy to get someone else to check/set it up if anyone has any recommendations?
Cheers.
