Hi all, particularly any diesel guru's.
I have a Nissan Terrano II 2.7 TD that, if it were a petrol engine, you would swear it was missing...Do / can diesels miss?
Does it hot or cold, doesn't appear to do it when under load just when cruising at a steady speed under 80kph.
I was told it may be an air leak in the fuel system or a dirty fuel filter so I put all new hose clamps on the fuel lines and changed the filter. That seems to have reduced it somewhat but its still doing it.
The vehicles done 190,000 km, doesn't use oil or blow smoke and the fuel consumption is unchanged.
It had a new No 1 injector and the other 3 serviced about 6 months ago.
Its also on gas (D-Gas) but "misses" whether the gas is on or off.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
