My instructor at Tech saw exactly that. He said it sucked completely through a phonebook and was well over 4k rpm before it started throwing parts across the shop.
EDIT: AH HA! Now I remeber, it was a stuck fuel rack. Here is a link to a similar story: http://astcomm.net/pipermail/techtalk/Week-of-Mon-20031027/000773.html Last edited by 82-300td; 11-29-2003 at 02:34 AM. |

Accorging to MB the fuel system needs to be replaced, the injection pump needs to be sent out for overhaul, the engine should be dismantled for inspection, and you should probably be looking at the new cars in the show room anyway. From the practical point, you drain the gas, put in diesel, and bleed the injection sustem. No harm done. Done it several times for clients. The engine doesn.t run long enough to do any damage. If you really don't like someone, put a few ounces of diesel in the tank of their gasser. With all the exhaust smoke, they'll ge sure they have a broken ring or something. Yo could be a good guy and offer to buy the car for cheap,if you like the car.

If Isuzu uses aluminum heads, it'll probably work. Isuzu is relatively new in this country, but they have been making diesels in Japan for a long time. By the way Isuzu is named after a river in Japan. Just some trivia. I wsh I knew something important.

I would be most concerned with the fact that gasoline has far less lubricity than diesel. running gas (even in cold weather) in your diesel engine will cause excessive wear to your injectors and injector pump. In quantities as high as 30% you will certainly cause your injectors & pump to prematurely fail.
If you need to add something other than diesel additive to prevent gelling, use kerosene. |
