So I reset the injectors, again to 145bar crack pressure. But. Now I have this electrical gremlin I can't seem to find. I have no glow plug light on the dash, also no power getting to the glow plugs. When it starts I have no tacho and I hear to what it seems like a relay tapping its head off..

I am ready to burn this thing to the ground...

Mark, chattering relays are typically earth related I have found, far too many tines. What have you loosened or overlooked retightening perhaps. Also, I am wondering if these are all off a common fuse, being an engine management fuse, had this one also once - just throwing up some further check points - you may have already covered? Bloody annoying this stuff for sure

Phil I have checked all fuses to no avail. Cheers mate.
Swapped out relays also,..

Or buy a dmax

I fixed my troubles with my oyta by buying a patrol, you might have to buy a oyta to fix your troubles on your patrol.

Seriously mate I know how frustrating it is, hope it works out for ya.

As electrically unskilled as I ams/are Mr Mark Mate, Phil might be onto something with earth issues somewhere?
Out of honest interest, when converting a 3.0L to 4.2L what is needed in regards the old loomy elecy stuff, is that all just totally disabled/disregarded somehows mate?

Could be an earthing issue, just strange how one day its perfect, then the next its not. Hard to see how an earthing issue would just not, earth. But who knows, I will have a look today at this and a few other things.

As for the loom, I sent it of to an auto sparkie who converted my loom so it was just a plug and pray setup. I've had zero issue with this until now.

I going to retrace my steps. Thinking more about it. I think Phil is onto something.

It just doesn’t sit right. The relay with the chatter checks out good. So it must be something I’ve done prior. I hope.
Last things I did were instal a new head unit, but this was a plug and play instal, no wires had to be cut. I had the intercooler off as I replaced the injectors. And neatened a few things up in the engine bay. I’ll undo what I have done to see if there’s anything suspicious.

Hmm I don’t think the new fan should be this dirty.
