Is there any place you know where they do EDC (Electronic Diesel Control) injection pump repairs. Most of the people saying they cannot be repaired in Sri lanka but needed to be replaced. Please let me know if there is any service ppl available in SL. Vehicle : Toyota Landcrusier Prado 2000 Regards sami

Sudden Engine Stall/miss And Difficuilt To Start.
sami_uyan replied to MkX's question in Mechanical problems
I had same kind of issue with a Allion.it was completely random some times runs all fine but some times engine stops as soon as i start...had no issue in high speeds but in traffics it was a headache. ..but finally my mechanic said it got to me the fuel filter located inside the fuel tank and mechanic showed me all the gunk in the old filter which surprised me about the quality of sri lankan fuel.replaced with a genuine fuel pump filter & Now there is no trouble at all... 1.But as u said u got no idle issues as i did so before going for any other repairs try to jump start thinking ur battery is dead...if it starts without any trouble u can make sure it was a issue with ur battery(u can check if ur battery voltage too, it got to be over 12.5 to assume its healthy to start).may be battery is fine but faulty alternator...but if you still find it difficult then you can go for more deeper diagnosis... 2. some vehicles got clutch switch/brake switch which completes the ignition circuitry to let the vehicle to start (in the vehicles where u need to press clutch/brake when u ignite) some times when those switches get faulty starting issues are present 3.I have some times seen mechanics hammer tap the started when there is no turning over but clicking and it some times simply works like a charm so u can check for that too so hope those would be useful to diagnose ur issues... -
one of my friends did his hilux invincible in uk and actually the results were not so noticeable for the amount you pay ...you cannot get huge HP change most of the times and only useful i think if used for racing purposes...had cost him like £300-400. So think twice if you plan to do such thing..
