    2 solution to the rought iddle :
    1. the map sensor : to diagnose a bad map sensor : disconnect it and run the car : if the car run smother it's the map sensor. You may have broke it during swap.
    2. The egr : it may be clogged up or malfunctioning and this is why the previous owner block the egr. Try to block the egr again (as original) and see if run rought.

    That air filter was filthy too. You need to wash it. Sit it in a bucket with some Persil washing powder and really hot water. Just half a cup of powder. Let that soak for 30mins. Then you need to rinse it through with a hose but from the clean side (inside) to the dirty side. So you push the dirt out. Leave to dry in the airing cupboard overnight. Ideally you should spray with K&N oil on the outside. Or a very light spray all over the outside with wd40.

      @@nagymatyika That's not what I meant, what you said might be useful, I meant like you bleed the old tipe of Diesel engines with the Bosch injection pump, to unscrew the injector bolts and bleed the engine until only Diesel comes out and not air. The modern Common Rail engines are self bleeding. That means once the engine starts it should bleed itself out pretty quickly and the engine will run normal again, I'm not sure if it's anything specific to these Ford CRDI engines but I'm suspecting that the EGR is not working correctly and that's why the car is running like crap as he gets all those fault codes for the EGR or some bad vacuum hoses that can cause an air leak. But could be anything really with those modern Diesel engines. A proper scan tool for diagnosing is your friend in such a case.

    The TDCI re-learns each cylinder over a 15 minute period. You’ve changed the dynamics of the combustion process by adding the EGR back to the engine that the ECU has adapted to live without. You’ll need to run the engine for an hour to allow all 4 cylinders to be re-adapted then it should return to normal.

  • @AdammP
    @AdammP Před 4 lety

    Two possible reasons which I can see,
    If the egr valve is stuck open it will allow unmetered air in.. causing this. Usually not a problem if they're stuck closed.
    Or air lock in the injector pipes , guessing you removed them to fit the seals.. they're usually self bleeding but you could crack them a bit of a turn at the injector and see if fuel comes out when it's running. Be careful though with high pressure fuel and use a rag if you do do it!

  • @malcolmyoung7866
    @malcolmyoung7866 Před 4 lety

    Hello James. The misfire is more than likely down to the work you carried out on the injectors. Air in the system(maybe) a poorly connected injector or break in the harness(wiring issue) etc. Although it’s a bit of work best put it back to ‘pre EGR/new ‘Carlos Fandango’ K and N and see if the car runs as it did before. If it does then it’s what you have added since the injector seals. If not then it’s more than likely to do with the work you did to the injectors. You need a baseline to work from. Poor running of diesels is down to a couple of basic factors ‘timing and compression’ usually. Inspect the engine around the injectors when idling. If there is any leaks around the injectors then the seals are either installed wrong or you may have forgotten to re secure the injectors in their seats properly. A poorly fitted injector will cause compression issues and poor running in a cycle set/misfire as will a working issue(not connected/poor connection/broken wire/open circuit) Also check that the injectors are connected to the harness correctly(unlikely as the harness only reaches specific cylinders) incase the firing sequence doesn’t match the engine timing. Great ‘vidjeo’ always enjoy watching..

  • @nagymatyika
    @nagymatyika Před 4 lety +1

    Check the real time data of mass air flow. On idle speed with opened EGR it should be around ~7g/s and with closed egr around ~10-12g/s. By the MAF change you can easily determine that whether the EGR is offed or not.
    EGR problem can cause misfire on a diesel engine and on this actual one air in fuel system also could. Try to rev up the engine several times and also keep it high rpm for a few minute.

    You mentioned that the engine was smoking more than it was with rough running and smoking, check the egr valve is closing all the way. You should be able to use your scan tool to open and close the valve while the engine is running to check and on live data see the amount it is open closed etc.

  • @mwmm
    @mwmm Před 4 lety

    If I can suggest one thing, get an inline fuel filter in the engine bay (the ones with transparent sides)
    The fuel pump on these is notorious for chewing its own casing eventually and sending metal shards through your engine, it will ruin all your lines and injectors requiring a £3,000+ rebuild.
    Having an inline filter can help you spot this early, bad idle is also a telltale sign.
    Source; personal experience with this exact model and engine, also have a quick Google too!

    I've got a 07 reg Mondeo st that I've had for 2 years now, and its been plagued with egr problems. The egr units themselves fail about 8-12 months, u can make them last longer if u clean them, but cheap ones generally die fast, I've had 3 changed. The egr cooler is also problematic, prone to leaking, and leaking coolant down the egr system and intake, giving the same symptoms as a blown head gasket, normally blowing white smoke, then underload rolling coal. If its idling and stalling when accelerating, its most likely got a leak somewhere in the egr system, where the egr valve opens underload, but because its leaking and loosing pressure, it can disturb the pressure and blow back, acting like its got no boost and often stalling when trying to boost up. The fuel system bleeds itself after a few turns, the Delphi high pressure pump pretty much bleeds itself through fast, as I've replaced the mechanical pump unit and all my injectors myself, so that aint the problem.
    P.s, I've searched through the amount of crap on talk ford and other sites to try and find answers cos my ST just isn't reliable, and most of the people on their don't know jack xD my personal opinion is to do what I did and blank it off from the exhaust manifold, and put the bypass back on, then do a stage 1 remap to get some extra boost and also remove the engine light for the egr codes. I've done that 2 months ago and now I don't have to worry about it again.

    Starting problems and smoke from exhaust? If the EGR valve you fitted was not new(?) the 1st thing I would try would be to blank off the EGR again (and did you fit the rubber gasket on the top of the valve?). Use a piece of tin cut from an old beer/coke can in the shape of the metal gaskets you fitted but without the hole in the middle... Slide out the gasket and slide the blank in its place and retest. If that cures it then the EGR valve is prob no good.

    I think you should refit the lower one. Its an exhaust recirculation valve, by removing the bottom plate you may well have stopped it from recirculating...

    Has your car been remapped with a egr delete ? That will be your issue if so

    Long time watcher first time commenting. Your videos are all great James and I can't wait to find out what's happening with the fiesta also hopefully you keep the enthusiasm and stay safe. You've given me the inspiration to start my own channel plus it gives me something to do through these quarantine times.

    Greetings and salutations from across the pond! We've missed you out here in Texas! Glad to see your doing well and still uploading. Stay safe out there. Your problem might be the maf is out of sync with your iac since you changed that air box and put on the egr. Just a wild guess though. Keep uploading as often as u can! 👍🇺🇸🇬🇧

    Looks to have had a replacement gearbox aswell also the egr will be mapped out so you need to get it mapped again to re commission it

    YOU DO NOT NEED A CAT ON DIESEL CARS OF THAT AGE TO PASS MOT!! THE AMOUNT OF SMOKE ALOUD TO PASS IS ALOT. IT WILL PASS AN MOT ON THE EMISSIONS SIDE OF IT WITH FLYING COLOURS

      The rules changed, diesels of that age don't need a cat to pass but if one was fitted from factory it must be present in the test

    when you delete the egr it is also turned of in the computer, you need to turn it on by software when you instal the egr valve back on

    it probably had an EGR delete because it has an internal fault relating to EGR. the previous owner probs didn't want to deal with finding a fault. I had a friend with a diesel estate mondeo they too hd a permanent fault code and a rough running car. I think its a mondeo thing.

    I think the old owner must have got it remapped or had the egr coded out of the system so the engine won't like being run with the egr, I got my lexus is220d remapped and it would do the same but just blank it off because it gives it a lot more acceleration

    I don't think you have to take off the bolt of the engine mount for the K&N bracket, you can also just put a nut on top of it :D

    Do a full egr delete and get it mapped out also get rid of the open air filter as they just suck warm air in

    I had a 2 litre diesel 06 reg MK3 which smoked like it was on 200 fags a day felt sorry for the drivers behind me, so I removed the EGR and blanked it off hey presto no smoke and it ran fantastic although the the MIL was on ran it for a week like this with no issues, so replaced the EGR valve thinking it was this but it went back to the old ways smoking spluttering etc, so investigated further and found the vac solenoid was playing up and was giving constant vac to the valve causing the egr to remain open all the time choking the engine, fitted a new solenoid and bingo prob sorted, if your car was remapped you wouldn't have the MIL on if it was blanked, but I was told by a mechanic Ford made it difficult to map out the EGR without causing issues, There is electronic way of defeating this on line.

    You should be able to test operate the egr valve using your autel as it has bidirectional control

    Could I ask why you put the EGR back on? They tend to be removed to save the engine on the life span.

    You have had the injectors out to change the seals. There will be a bit of air in the system, you will need to bleed the injectors.

    Needs a good run out to rid the air build-up from when you did the injector seals.

    @syjames824 Před 4 lety

    Did you clean the filings out before fitting the K&N? I do think there is air in the system and you probably should have primed it before starting it. A good blast is the best thing for it now though.

  • @seanb9814

    You have air in the system. It running like that and touching throttle snd cutting out is common symptoms. Leaving it running longer then you are doing will sort it out. Great vid though,been waiting for an upload from you for ages👍🏻
