Hi All
thank you for your input, the valve is the one leaking in mine and the valve here is a Boch supposedly a good brand. Just heard from my mechanic that these valves sometimes are not regulated properly at 4 bar which is the pressure coming from the fuel pump and can create other problem so fair enough that somebody tried it and it worked Happy Travel www.thegippo.wordpress.com |

I used X8R for my Disco 3 suspension air compressor. Good quality kit, so I won't have a problem using them for the td5 fuel pressure regulator. Roel

I'm afraid to say for me it didnt work. But mine was a Ebay not xk8
1st time out the seal I'd replaced failed. Luckily the kit had 2 seals so I did it again and it was fine. But then the diarprahm in the valve that came with the kit failed. Back on std lr one now 2014 - current ..... 2003 defender td5 90 (my car) 2009 - current .... 2005 zx10r |

The repair kit did not work after doing all as far as i know correctly, seems like it is starting again to let some kind of oily mix out of the fitted valve (which is a boch)
the background is that i had the original on many years ago and then it failed and i fitted a new original one that again did not resist for a long time.( a couple of years) it was badly lately pouring out this oily mix So i decided to keep the regulator and repair the valve which upon purging the system and starting the car, i noticed the next day a slight oily mist coming out from the valve Do you have any ideas what could be wrong? is it pressure? what should i be looking for ? what is causing the valve to leak or blow in such a short time? thanx gents Happy Travel www.thegippo.wordpress.com |
