DAMN, DAMN & DAMN again!!!! Well I've run the Conzult balance test in the past few weeks and it worked OK but Mr. F ran it today and it consistantly failed with only a drop of 30-60... Swapped over Coil packs later on and no change, disconnected injector and there was a drop in performance... I don't believe that it's low compression although it'll be going to see the Mr. F or Jeff to get checked over and hopefully sorted... I'd just like some more thoughts...

 

I know that Conzult should can only point to a fault being present and not to what the fault is but my understanding is that it can only be Compression, Spark or fuel so I am more than a little concerned and slightly panicked!!!!

 

Thanks for the advice in advance guys...

A power balance test is a good way of measuring how a cylinder is performing.If the cylinder is consistantly low it may point to a problem.Compression test is the next step mate.

Yep... Got to get it booked in but looks like I've got a month before I can get it to Mr. F to get it looked at... not sure that I want to drive it too far like this and Mike is nearest to me... Anyhow I'm hoping that it's not compression otherwise that's alot of cash I'm looking at... The engines only done 3K!!!!

 

Cheers for the advice!

Don`t panic yet! the ConZult power balance is a very basic test and it cannot be taken as read that there is any serious problems.

 

The ConZult system monitors the alternator output current and notes the different outputs when certain cylinders are swithed off, many other issues can give poor balance issues, poor tick over set up, unbalanced throttle butterflys, afm issues, injector connections or spray pattern in fact there are so many the balance test should be used for basic help with misfire tracing.
