- I try to fix my broken fuel return T-piece - using a soldering iron and a cable tie as a filler rod. Plastic welding? Well, it was a nice idea... Then I bought some new ones and went for a test drive.
Thanks for all of your comments, some of them particulalrly useful!

Don't forget to like the video if you like it, and share with your friends if you really like it! Thank you all.
Just when you think you've seen most things in life, you see a cable tie used as welding flux. Pure HubNut genius!
I would say that it needs a fuel filter change
Hi Ian, check the hose from the intercooler if perished once the pressure builds up they sometimes leak, I had a similar issue on my TD4 the hose looked fine when stood but once it was revs was added it lost pressure to the turbo... again there are aftermarket silicone ones of various Internet sites...
And all that ..is why i don't buy Diesels
'Italian Tune-Up' should definitely be in the Hubnut drinking game. Along with any mentions of tractors, tourists and 'I've got one of those somewhere'.
Modern car problem: Too many capital letters under the bonnet.
Trouble with cars like this is all of the vacuum hoses have aged, sometimes an actuator will get sticky and not always do what they should, and MAF sensors.... speaking of which have you tried unplugging it to see if it runs any better? Doesn't work on all engines but it's often an easy test to rule out a cause of a flat spot :)
“I had a sixth sense this was going to go horribly wrong. And it did”. I laughed so much, I dropped my lunch... Superb work. Loving this series. Thanks.
Start of the video is screaming out for a voiceover man to say the, “previously on hubnut!”
Can’t you go to Warwick in ELLY or your lovely GSA? Your wife is lovely and so are your children who are the image of your wife. You are a lucky man and I love your videos
'I left the light on, and now it's gone flat' - so Hubnut, so real life!
Very proud of your perseverance and the way you dealt with the adversity. Real life and we have (most of use) been there. More Vectra anecdotes but the comment about vacuum pipes and unions is valid. An invisible (small) break in a union put me in limp mode.
You are so funny without trying, it’s amazing
I do like this Rover 75, it does certainly have plenty of (recent) retro charm!!.
Get a small torx socket set and gently move that injector loom out the way. It makes access to the PCV so much easier.
With so many twists and turns, on seemingly so many different jobs, on different vehicles, l'm beginning to think, someone, somewhere is messing around with a voodoo doll, in your image.
Another use for a cable tie. Love it.
Rudolf Diesel would have been proud of your work 👍
One small step for mankind, one giant leap for Hubnut....
Brings back memories of self as a younger impecunious motorist leaning into engine bays whilst making lots of oily fingerprints on Haynes manuals, The Vauxhall Viva HB and Skoda 120L ones being the oiliest.
