Hey there!
I have a 93 TD42 Patrol,
Long story short.. I drowned it 2-3 weeks ago, water got sucked in through the air box and the car shut off almost instantly. I got my mate to pull me out.
Waisting no time, We then pulled the glow plugs out and cranked it over. Drove 2 hours home as I had no other choice.
Now in the mornings the car runs rough and blows white smoke. But after about a minute of driving it drives fine, no knocking sounds on idle, no loss of power.
It does have a slight ticking noise under load. I noticed my #4 injector was leaking. Glow plugs are all working fine.
I also did a compression test the results are as follows;
Cyl 1: 430psi

Cyl 2: 410psi

Cyl 3: 420psi

Cyl 4: 240psi

Cyl 5: 410psi

Cyl 6: 380psi


My mechanic suggests I change my injectors, injector pump and glow plugs


My question is;
Could the leaking #4 injector be the cause of low compression in cylinder 4?

Thanks LEGENDS <3
