why isn't my rd2.8td starting when hot ??

[patrol28]

hopefully someones had this problem b4 . my 96 gq 2.8 td is getting harder to start when hot. it i've tested both glow relay's even cleaned the contacts tested all glow plugs all dead short as there meant to be..
replaced the injectors and now thinking its a injector timing or valve problem has been dyno tuned and all was well any idea's ?????????????
please help someone must have had this prob there's a carton on offer...

Yep, it's the injector pump wearing, you'll need to get an advance plate from Nissan that'll cost you around $60 including a new o ring.
That'll be a carton of Tasman for the diagnosis.

Rip the car in to Motsons @ moorooka. they will supply and fit the mod plate for around the $60 mark. I had mine done and then managed to pick up a pump with 66,000km on it so the modded one has become a back up.

thanks for the offer
at the moment ("while it still run's") im trying to find & fix the problem and if i don't i should have a better understanding of every little bit of the 2.8 by the sounds of it im going to have a few "issues".. you might hear from me shortly if i crack the ships... fingers crossed ....
my mate had a 4.2 he used for winch challanges and warned me not to go near the 2.8 so now i have to get it cranking or cop it ..
