got all 4injectors refurbed and it was fine. 2 were worse than others but chose to get them all done In one hit as it was quite likely that the other two would go.
Need to update this! Will be a big update soon as she is coming back on the road after being declared sorn during the winter months. Few more little trick things have gone on.
big thanks to HMS-Derv-Destroyer for sending me out his spare pump and injector rail thingy.
Ended up getting the number 3 injector reconditioned and the car has been running like a dream since. Only thing I have noticed is that im struggling to get above 54mpg and most of my commute to work...
If it's cheap then I would do it too lol
i might have to give that a go. Any particular brand? What do you use?

I did have a quick look on ebay but they didn't have the right code I think they were...
that would be blinding mate where abouts in Essex are you? I live in Thundersley but am always between there and dagenham.
that is brilliant thanks very much mate I appreciate that pm on the way.
Also removed the dodgy injector again yesterday to get the number off of it and found that I can...
Oops didn't see this. I don't mate I only have what is in this thread.
Basically what Beeson said. I finished it drive it for a bit. Booked Bedford in March and it got cancelled shortly after that blew second gear and thought I can't be bothered to fix it. Knew this little gem...
