Outer Limits 4x4 Board

it is a td42 with after market turbo set-up, car appears to breakdown and splutter after two and a half/three thousand revs.
only recently started doing this and was fine before hand.
i am not to sure where to start but to me it seems like all it can be is lack of fuel. any advice welcome thanks scottie.

check the filter on the fuel sender in the tank get a cav type fuel filter with the glass bowl on the bottom so you can see if any shits going through my td 42 blatted at about the same revs as your does black smoke everywhere hope this helps

can also be o-ring in fuel pump, it will bypass when under load if its badly worn but run ok unloaded

there is also a filter in the injetor pump on some models which blocks up
some one here might know of alink to it

my truck is doing the same thing, i am also lookin for a cause,

mine does not have the guaze strainer, replaced small filter on fuel sender and didnt do anything, and fuel filter changes havnt helped,

im hoping its not the pump, is there any way to test it, as mine was rebuilt about 60,000ks ago,

Mc gill, plumb up another fuel source in a 4l container, put the return hose in it as well and go for a drive, this will tell you if its the pump or the fuel supply system.

thanks for the help will try using alternate fuel source and also check filter.
thanks again for the advice

some times thr rubber fuel lines seporate the inner from the outter n when you stand on the throttle it colapses the fuel line stopping the fuel
