Hi all,
My sprinter died last night, had to have it towed from the calder fwy.
Sunday Everything was fine...car running well. Sunday night I went for a drive and car was extremely slow, I blamed a fat arsed mate who was in the car.
Monday morning, still slow, idling lower than usual but drivable - went to work.
Monday afternoon started car to drive home from work, was extremely crap, but assumed problem would get a little better when it warmed up. Made reasonable power above 4000rpm (if it got there).
Could barely get to 90kph on western ring road, had to slow for some other bogans broken down car, couldn't get above 60kph.
Eventually stopped on the exit to calder fwy, where I stopped and noticed smoke emerging from the bonnet. Having a look the exhaust manifold was glowing red.
I am running a sv21 camry swimmer pump in the standard sprinter tank, no breather. new efi filter. This setup has run well for a few months. The fuel pump is definately running - whether it is actually pumping anything, or whether there is a block in the lines somewhere I'm not sure.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Clayton
