My 98 75TD Bravo failed the MOT at the weekend due to excessive black smoke. The car has been stood for a few months but I gave it a good drive around before the MOT and changed oil,oil filter, fuel filter etc before the MOT. The pass level is 3.0 and mine was showing 3.97 average. I have since replaced the air filter, added some stop smoke products to both the oil and fuel and also added some diesel injector cleaner and given the car another good run. The car seemed just as bad so I have pulled the hose from the crankcase breather unit that sits on top of the inlet manifold and have run a hose from the breather to vent under the car and have blanked off the hose that leads back into the air intake. The idea of this is so any fumes are now chucked out of the breather and vented under the car and I know that the car is only sucking clean air through the filter as the crankcase does seem to breathing quite heavily. I took the car today for another emissions test and it is now WORSE than it was, averaging over 5.0!! I would have expected that with all the additives in and the fact that it is now breathing clean air it would be better than it was but the opposite has happened...HELP!!! what else can I check/adjust?? the MOT tester suggested that the pump may have been adjusted to give it more power, can I adjust the pump to reduce power(and emissions) just to get it through the test???
