Been out washing Devon off the bike.   All tucked away now nice and clean.

And yes I know washing my bike in the rain is questionable in mental heath terms but the dirt was bothering me 😳

 

I wish I was like you!

Yesterday - clearing up leaves and smoking the place out burning them.

Today - village Remembrance Day parade / service.  I have a lot of local military and ex military friends. They go straight to the pub from the service and stay there until chucking out time. I will wander up there in a bit for a couple.

My tractor Harley is acting up...unsteady idle...after I bleed the fuel line...its ok for a couple of weeks...then starts up again...there's air getting in there somehow...can't see anything external...I have no idea..maybe a bad injector  ?  Fuel pump..?   Haven't got anything to test diesel engines...I might have to call the expert...was planning to change out the fuel filter today.. but I'll wait until I'll talk to diesel guy...im gonna services the snowblower insted...

It’s a pity you don’t know a competent mechanic.

Are you one ?   What do you think it could be .?  I would start by fitting a fuel pressure gauge to the rail and see if im loosing pressure when it's turned off...but haven't got any gauges that read that high...its a high  pressure fuel pump...

Probably just a bad seal on the fuel line, something perished probably as it is rarely used.

Well I checked every fuel line , they appear to be fine...there's a manual hand pump above the fuel filter to when changing the filter,  to prime it up again with fuel....turn the inginision..pump till it's solid and you can't depress no more....I noticed when you shut it off..minute after I can pump 3 good pumps in it...wondering if the diafram could be puncture or cracked...

Could be, if the lines are all good then the next stop is the fuel put and if there is a manual primer then that’s a possibility.

It is easy to delete an EGR valve, does it use adblue?

No adblue , its got one of those diesel particulate filter canister sitting on top of the engine , all computer control , with a bunch of sensors, it normally regenerate every 50 hrs or so , if you run at low rpm , under 2000 rpm , it will regenerate under 50 hrs...takes any wheres from 15 min to 1/2 hour for it to do its thing....all things that I would like to remove eventually....the engine bay is just totally cramped with shit, without access to anything..

All those things can be removed fairly easily, the trick is to find someone with the computer hardware to re-programmed the unit...if Im not mistaken the computer has to be physically opened up , to remove or by pass certain things....so it has to be done by someone who knows what he's doing...if im not mistaken the ecu is ultra expensive...

Sometimes you can get an emulator that you plug in that makes the computer think it is still there.

There is a diesel shop in town , ive heard good reviews about the place , tampering with diesel emissions are illegal here but it isn't enforced, everyone who owns a diesel truck or machinery after the manufacturer warranty is over...they have everything deleted, I might stop in today and chatt with the fellow to see if he has any experience with this make and model of tractor

And another thing...this unit is  35 hp , they have 40 and 45 hp , all using the exact everything, same displacement ,  same engine , the hp is controlled by the ecu and fuel pump pressure, so I could possibly get more hp if I decide to go this way...
