π§π THE SMALLEST FAULTS CAN CAUSE THE BIGGEST HEADACHES! πͺ
Another interesting diagnostic job through the workshop at Active Hydraulics & Mechanical!
This diesel engine had us investigating its EGR and vacuum control system, where even a small leak can create major performance problems.
Rather than throwing parts at the problem, we got stuck into some proper fault-finding! π
π§ Our diagnostic process included:
β
Inspecting the EGR system and associated components
β
Checking vacuum hoses and connections
β
Using specialist smoke-testing equipment to investigate potential leaks
β
Identifying damaged hose sections requiring attention
β
Working through the system to narrow down the source of the fault
π¨ Why does it matter?
A small vacuum leak can interfere with engine control systems and potentially contribute to poor performance, fault codes and inconsistent engine operation.
At AHM, we believe in diagnosing the problem before replacing parts unnecessarily.
Whether itβs a tricky electrical fault, diesel performance issue, EGR problem or something that has another workshop scratching its head, weβre always up for a challenge!
