Nice find! I referenced this because I have a rover300 pump on my 1998 vw Tdi engine, in a mk1 rabbit. Funny thinking my injection pump used to live in one of your suv
The cone the boost pin rests against can be turned to adjust fuel during boost I adjusted the position to getting a loss of power with foot down then richen slightly & now my LWB County returns 33 to 34 mpg across country driving from Thame to Kington >> Its similar to adjusting a Carburetor for best fuel consumption on a petrol vehicle... Another fuel saver was achieved with fitting road type tyres the same circumference & softer rear dampers... Seems bouncing up and down isn't fuel efficient >> This has been observed on other vehicles after changing springs & dampers >
I have a 300tdi defender which has been stood for a number of years i have just got it going but the engine is racing at abou 2500rpm with mo throttle response could this be the issue with my engine a stuck boost pin
Great information.
Well presented.
We never take notice of that little breather.
Cheers for sharing.

Glad it was helpful.

I do believe that nylon washer is commonly referred to as the fun police washer... Many ppl shave it down or toss it completely
Great video, thanks bud

Is put a sealed reservoir, like a accumulator, and hook that to the vent tube.
