| Odd running problem on 360 GD Auto
360 GD starts great, during warm up goes on to misfire as if flooded and smokes like excess fuel. increase in revs clears it, When driving runs fine but if you stop quickly from highish revs again goes into misfire as if flooded and smokes. if you slow down gradually no problems.
Done all ussual to no result, suspect injector pump, any previous experience out there of this defect?  |

"....Done all ussual...." Do you have a list? Don't want to miss it by ASS-U-ME - ing anything. Got a cool exhaust runner telling you if the miss is a single cylinder or multiples? -Dave G. |

Its multiple Dave, but it isnt long enough to affect the EGT, it runs fine in every other way, maybe blows a little too much black smoke. |

Maybe pump wear causing timing to go off a little. Did you see if advancing it a little helps? Root cause could be in the pump indeed, but either pressure or timing can cause that kind of thing. If a slight timing adjustment doesn't help it, I'd check the injector sprays on and off the pump to diagnose a pressure problem leading to bad atomization (and have gone through the usual suspects upstream like filters and potential leaks letting air in). -Dave G. |

Hello Rough Neck,
Has your problem started immediately, or has it built up? What is the History?
Get the valve clearances checked out first, if all other basics have been competently done.
Regards,

Hi Rocky,How are you keeping? I'd forgotten that the valves tighten up. I'll be on that tomorrow. |

Bingo. Valve adjustment, strange once you know what it is it makes sense, now running as sweet as a 300GD should thanks for all the imput  |
