Resources - Bosch diesel pumps

Unread post by white exec »

We've just added the Bosch diesel injection pump technical guide to the Resources library.
The very readable 66pp booklet covers all the VE pumps, from all-mechanical to ECU-driven versions, explains how each works, and includes adjustment, timing, repair and checking info.

The downloadable and printable pdf is in the Members' Area > Resources > Citroen Mechanic's handbooks section, at the bottom of the table.

So excited to see this as I have made some adjustments to my pump and it smokes like a bad 'un now!

However, the link does not find the resource...

Just need to have a good look at the guide to be able to use the requisite proper technical terms. It is a VP20 pump I believe with the electrical cold start advance and also a waxstat. Maybe cold start advance is still receiving 12 volts after car is warm and still allowing more fuel through if that is indeed how it works.

Issue starts at around 4 minutes!

Marc,
Could you have a look at the mega.nz link for the Bosch booklet, as 'file not found' appears.
Thanks, C.

I've sorted the link out Chris, resource is available again.
Please note, I'm no longer active on the Forum, so won't respond to messages.
