First Post , David Norman from Guernsey,UK
I have had from new a 2002 100 series Amazon 4.2 diesel with a 1 HD-FTE engine.
127,000 miles it has been the best car I have ever had and bullet proof until recent gremlin.
I have had a problem where one accelerates it feels as if the throttle sticks and as you push the throttle harder it smokes hard and then clears , very smoky and embarrassing. it happens between 1200 and 2200 rpm. Only when you are running and accelerate. It runs smooth at tick over and when you give it the beans it runs clean.
Main dealer fitted a new Turbo as they said that was the fault, it has made no difference.
I suspect it is the injectors, are they single or two stage in this engine.
They are Nippon Denso does anyone know where i can get these tested and serviced in the UK?
Or does anyone know where I can get new ones?
