Excited Female looking forward to restoring JCB 3C MK 2

[paul.morris275]

Injectors were £35+VAT to get them sorted, only needed two doing and the firm that did them cleaned the other two up and tested them.

I saw the parts bill and they only charged a little bit on top, so was well happy with the price.

Going to look at the brakes now, hopefully they will just need cleaning.....

This reply is 6 months after the original post so I don't know if you will ever see it but I noticed that your
injectors had copper washers ( as they usually do from re-conning ) but they shouldn't have , the BMC engine has a copper injector sleeve that seals the injector and if you fit the copper washer it brings the injector up so that it is injecting (slightly) in the tube rather than in the combustion chamber causing slightly slow starting and white smoke ( sometimes unburnt deisel actually running down the exhaust) untill it warms up well. If this is the case you should be able to retreave the washers with an old cheap screwdriver and bend the end 1/4" at 90 degree's , you can research the subject in , best regards ,
