Hello I'm new to this forum and I was hoping you could help me. I'll try to describe my cars promblem as detailed as possible.
First of I have one glow plug which is dead I have bought new Bosch Glowplugs but I haven't replaced them yet.
I have 2 issues with my strada. One fault is leaking prechamber I have diesel fuel pressing up between the pre chamber and cylinder head. I have bought new copper washers to under the pre chambers but the pre chamber seem to be held in place with a special nut. Has anyone done this job?
I have already replaced the gasket/heat shield under the injectors.
Now to the second fault. My car can start just fine but sometimes it cuts out and dies and the red check engine light comes on. Often when at idle the RPMs will rise to around 1500and the red check engine light comes on and it dies. It will restart as if nothing has happen. But sometimes it can die light 5-6times in a row but as soon as I get going it works properly.
I can also feel it surging while I'm driving.
It always restarts. Sometimes it can run great for a whole day then suddenly it starts acting up again.
Hope you have some ideas!
Best Regards
