XM 2.1 TD Diesel Preheater bypass

Post by sdabel »

My XM began running rough while cold and was down on power. Based on my readings of this forum I bypassed the preheater.

Very easy job; trace fuel lines to find preheater, remove fuel lines and replace with single new line that bypasses the preheater.

Car now runs fine from cold and power is back. :D

So a quick thanks to all those who took the time to document what they have done so that I could identify and fix with ease.

Did the same to my sons BX a couple of days ago, but the first time I encountered it was on my last CX 'some years' ago.
