Bad news as fault came back, so maybe not fuel filter, I decided to find out where problem was happening (air ingress) and set about changing all fuel pipes, whilst carefully checking for bubbles, I bypassed filter head, but no better, then I changed all rubber hoses, this is where my luck...

adjust preload on steering box, either by the manual method, or sensibly by feel. i cut a small section out of battery tray to enable it to be done on car. now play at wheel and pulling to left has gone. and 35mm is nearly 1.5" that is a lot of free play.

as per my last post, try adjusting steering box preload as per manual, makes a load of diferance, no more pulling to left or wandering, or your fault could be relay box. ball joints milners. sounds a cheep mot, if you do it yourself. no welding?

Further to all I have read about the pulling to left business, I have now replaced all of steering components including last week the drag link arm, but still pulled a bit to the left. But the slight play I had felt in steering wheel was still present, so I checked from steering wheel to...

if you put clear pipe on inlet and outlet of filter/hand primer, you will also see if air is entering at hand pump.

just an update centurion, as requested, my similar problem started durring the last cold snap, eventualy traced to a faulty Boshi fuel filter, the bonded top seal fell off when i removed fuel filter, it looked shirveled so doesnt like diesel and cold? new one fitted, car is great again, 400 mile...

hello, maff output on my maverick is a bigh at tickover, about 2.2v. but yes you can see it moving with air mass passing over it, not whilst driving i might add. my problem turned out to be different faulyt codes to yours. i removed cranck sensor conector, and got fault coade as yours, the car...

hello timbo, after some research i came to that conclusion, r20 manual is full of doom and gloom on that, last item is air, not first! not sure if mine is the only boshi filter to have had such a fault, doesnt look like a neopryne seal, whatever it is, and the bonding agent, they dont like...

to answer my own question, it was a faulty fuel filter, less than 6 months old, 7,000 miles, top seal decided it didnt like diesel and let go of filter, it had swelled up and was leaking air, did clear pipe test on inlet and outlet, many bubles on outlet, so investigated fuel housing, and found...

i have been doing some more digging on google, and similar fault appears to be common with air leak in diesl lines, which kind of makes sense, i have also rechecked manual and found the following. P1246 0201 I Injection timing feedback system does not operate properly. (This system consists...

Hello, I took advice from a fellow member (ray) and obtained a consult lead and software, very good advice. My Maverick has been ok, done many mods and overhauled, but intermittently got loss of power, which was originally cured with a new MAF. Similar fault occurred during cold spell, if you...

if you have a fast leak, you will see gas freeze on exit from hole! but if you suspect it will leak, it is ileagle to fill with gas. but leak will show on vacume check, most modern refil systems will bar you from filling unless sucseful vacdown. i have seen lots of terranos all with holes in the...

no new snow here yet, smattering on ground from day before yesterday.

i do my own repairs and welding, mot and other odd job (wifes car) get done at deano's garage in middlebrook, called middlebrook garrage. from kirkby to selston, turn left at end of salmon lane, down the dip, first right at bottom, or his son has garage in selston. dont you diy then? give it a...

so, 3 miles away?? we used to live in nunkergate, think thats how it was spelt? our maverick is dark blue, with irish plates RBZ, thankfully not "private plates" it actualy did come from belfast, makes the log book a bit odd for some reason. durring the last snow me an my son were on salmon lane...

welcome, where in nottinghamshire are you? we are in selston, just got the maverick myself, bought as a bit of a whim from ebay, thinking how bad can it be? well lots of welding and lots and lots of suspension parts later, it passed its mot. an irish import, log book is wooly on age, but guess...

thichsteve. in tv's early days of intergrated circuits we used to have thickfilm sub assemblies, seemed to fail in cold weather, or when being unsolderd (too hot) i have not seen a terrano bosch unit but believe the unit contains the ellemnent on the film? when i got the maverick it was slow...

thinking about what you said ray, if it was -5 driving, add windchill could be at 70mph what -30?? or less. maybe needs air inlet point to manifold, just like the old days? i have opened up a hitachi one, well potted in semi fluid grease, no sign of water ingress, small area of localised...
