Berlingo XUD9TE project (Y THO?)

[Richard]

is it possible to ungum them?

[Supernaut]

If you get an XUD with a Lucas pump, at least it's a running engine for now. You can then source a Bosch pump (and injectors) later and swap it.

[Lacquer Peel]

Don't DW8 engines get ring gumming on veg? Did I dream that?

 

They shouldn't, the combustion chamber is similar to an X/TUD.

 

I've just spoken to the seller on the phone, he seems alright but I can't collect it til next weekend.

[Supernaut]

Where is it?

 

Be good to meet you, and lend a hand.

[Lacquer Peel]

It's in Perth.

Xsara stalking

You're welcome to point and laugh while me and Richard attempt an engine swap but it's not local for him or you.

[Supernaut]

Perth? Aye, not exactly local to me.

[Lacquer Peel]

Neither is Evanton if you want to point and laugh.

Put that gorgeous* Xsara on the road and modify the broken Blingo into its trailer. Obvious, innit?

 

That way you only carry a load of spare air around when you need to, like for the ten pallet trip.

 

Xsara = many Autoshite points, nearly as many as homemade Blingo trailer.

£45 cam belt and water pump kit, WCPGW?

 

Also, I've seen a Bosch pump setup with everything but the injectors on eBay - will it work with the DW8 Bosch injectors or XUD9TE Lucas injectors?

[Supernaut]

It'll work with the Lucas XUD injectors. I did that for a bit before swapping to Bosch injectors.

[KruJoe]

Our Will might have some injectors. 

Bosch him a pm.

 

(swidt?)

[Lacquer Peel]

I wonder if it's possible to put TD injector nozzles in the DW8 injector bodies. This cheap and easy engine swap is getting quite convoluted and expensive.

[Arthur Foxhake]

I have a bosch pump, lines and injectors in my shed.

Slightly juiced up as well.

P.M me.

[Lacquer Peel]

SPEED MACHINE.

Why? I thought you were putting the entire XUD engine in? Why are you pissing about with any DW8 parts?

To get the right injectors and nozzles for a Bosch pump.

There was an MOT-less one owner Bosch FLAVA 306TD on Gumtree round here the other week. It looked alright but was hopelessly over-priced, had fancied it for the same reason as you LP, but it was just too expensive to bother. Could you shoehorn a 2.1TD in for shits and giggles?

[Richard]

No reason why not, but I think there's a bit more fannying about with driveshafts. It's hard to find a fully mechanical pump 2.1 as well, most of them are Lucas EPIC.

[Arthur Foxhake]

They will run a bosch mechanical pump no problem.

And lots of boost.

Pretty sure you can put a 306 gearbag on as well.

Now we're getting somewhere. 2.1td Bosch pumped lingo with ALLTEHBOOST

 

FASTEST PALLETHAULER IN DA NORF

[Lacquer Peel]

I think even a standard 1.9TD will be nippy in a Berlingo. With a Bosch pump and tweaks, even more so.

True true!

Fuck that for a lark, those things feel nearly as dangerous as C15 with a N/A dizzer

[Richard]

I believe Shetland hire Berlingos can get within 30k of the speed in that video.

The NHS had one lingo with a turbo in Derby a few years ago, that could also get within 30k of that video's speed. Felt totally unsafe doing it mind.

[Dave_Q]

I can confirm that a HDi Berlingo can achieve 180km/h on a slightly downhill section of the A1(M) autobahn near Das Leeds.

 

 

 

 

 

Allegedly.

C15 n/a feels totally* safe at all speeds and corners

I ragged mine (contribution to its downfall maybe) and it just felt like a slightly top heavy 306 to drive. Safe and secure.
