Here I have my mates 58 plate Ford Fiesta Mk6 that came to me with a misfire on cylinder 4. We got the parts and managed to do the work saving him big £££
On TDCI & HDI engines No1 injector is the one on the right & you add 1 to 4 from right to left. I just had mine fixed & my mechanic got confused & then verified this with the injectors expert.
No.1 injector on these is the gearbox end one,....There's also no need to open any diesel pipes off the filter - open the 2 bolts that hold it, shove it back, leave all the pipes connected. Plenty space then & saves ages. Only hose you need open is the injector return line & it just pulls off, pushes back on. On the injectors themselves, just undo the 14mm nut, the pipes will pop off the injectors without undoing anything else. :-) It's roughly a 20 minute job to take off an injector & about the same to fit one/re-assemble the gubbins. Less after you do a few..
Hi, I have a Ford Fiesta 1.4tdci with Siemens system, after replacing the injector gasket, the whole kit, the car has become a naturally aspirated engine, I no longer feel the small boost I had before, what's the problem?
Hello mate I’m haveing the same problem if my ford it no1 could you tell me what fuel injectors to order please there look the same as the one you have
Hi did this go into limp mode, Be for you changed the bad injector at stand still if you revved to 3000 rpm would loads of smoke come out the exhaust like really cloudy,
Hello, I've got a 2007 Fiesta TDCI 1.6, with the limp mode on. It could have any other kind of fix? Googled it and ppl saying it could be the heaters (don't know their name exactly, their purpose is to warm up the engine easier on very cold climate)
The TDCI motors 1.4, 1.5, and 1.6 are superb offerings from Ford. They can take quite a beating before serious wear can occur. About glow plugs which you speculate is the problem is a miniscule one. The Glow Plug's function is mostly when starting a cold engine. When you're trying to get the engine to turnover, the glow plugs heat the diesel so you can get the car running without cold start fuss - usually smoke, vibration, or repeated cranks to get it going. It doesn't stay on while the car in being driven for miles. Someone on Quora even asked this once. If glow plugs are critical to functioning of a car and whether a vehicle can run without one. The answer is it depends on where you are. If you experience frequent dip in ambient temperature, glow plugs are necessary to reduce the diesel viscosity. But if you're from tropical areas, you'll not even notice the plugs in operation or its effect on the car's performance. In warmer places, when plugs fail, they simply don't matter much or at all. But not something you should ignore when you're in Europe or other colder places. That said, these engines (TDCI) are somewhat notorious for injector issues, although not in the early days. Here, in India we have the same motor on cars like Figo Type 1, Fiesta, and few other Ford models from 2011 to 2018. In the used car markets, almost all 1.4 TDCI needs injector maintenance. Sometimes people MacGyver it by using diesel injector cleaners from Abro (best), LiquiMoly (next best), and Wurth (if it's the only choice). These cleaners mask vibrations and issues temporarily while you figure out something long term. Another problem with the TDCI engine is the carbon build up in the intake manifold and EGR valve. Most people aware of this issue, get their TDCI intake manifolds and EGR cleaned once every 80,000 km.
@@Sobin16 In my case I'm from Spain (hot country in general), the car doesn't gives any problem while driving except the limitation of power which is a bit dangerous when overpasses and that all. Even if my car doesn't ever ignites the glow plugs, the failure they're giving its the concern to be fixed. And I'm not sure what to do, but that diesel cleaner sounds a good-to-go idea! Thanks a lot my friend
Hi good video mate I have the same problem with my ford fiesta zetec 1.4 tdci been told number 4 injector not right but on dash it says electric accreltor control fail? he put on dinostic it coming up with number 4 still will the code need to be wrote down so then it can be coded or will it work on its own thank you
@@CharlotteGreen-kv9sx from memory, it goes 4-3-2-1 from timing chain side to the gearbox. As I originally accidentally changed number 1 instead of 4 and then learned that it’s backwards on these engines. Hope that helps
Big ups on the work
Running sweet as now you’ve sorted the injector 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Another happy customer;) cheers mate, any problems just let me know👍🏻
On TDCI & HDI engines No1 injector is the one on the right & you add 1 to 4 from right to left. I just had mine fixed & my mechanic got confused & then verified this with the injectors expert.
Excellent video Sir 👍

Hi, another good one.the Fiesta was a bit lumpy but it runs perfect.definitely do more videos like this,it all makes great content for UA-cam.
Cheers mate, I’ll try my best to get some done mate. Really enjoyed doing this for my mate instead just working on my own projects!
Could you please tell how much the parts cost
If I have just bought a second hand/unreferbished injector does this need programming?? My fiesta van on a 58 exact same problem thanks
No programming needed mate, from my experience
Hello,
Do the new injectors need to be programmed after being installed on the Fiesta 1.4TDCI ?
No mate
Cheers!
No problem mate!
Thanks
Hi did this go into limp mode,
Be for you changed the bad injector at stand still if you revved to 3000 rpm would loads of smoke come out the exhaust like really cloudy,
Yes mate those were the symptoms, I found it was smoking in the engine bay too creating a big mess where the diesel is cooking on top in the engine
Hi when you fitted the new injector did you have to code it in or was it just clear the the code that had come up thanks kev
No need for coding mate👍🏻 cleared the code after first start up
Be aware: On this Engine cylinder 1 is on the gearbox side !!

Could it be the glow plugs?
You probably want to get a code reader out and see what codes it’s theowing
@@BTR_REBUILD The code reader said that, but problem is im not sure if changing them would fix it 🥲

You teach me to see a video to the end i did change te injector 1
Glad I can help matw
Got one at work no lights on dash but it’s shaking and misfire is bad lol wounder if this is the cause
Code reader come up with a misfire?

Doesn’t need to be coded👍🏻
@BTR_REBUILD cheers mate is number 4 second one from gear box
@@CharlotteGreen-kv9sx from memory, it goes 4-3-2-1 from timing chain side to the gearbox. As I originally accidentally changed number 1 instead of 4 and then learned that it’s backwards on these engines. Hope that helps
@BTR_REBUILD ok ill try that mine is a 03 plate iam in UK here or try taking the leads off one at a time will that help thank you
@@CharlotteGreen-kv9sxYeah that’s the best way, see if it changes. If not that’s your missing injector
Do you have a factory workshop manual for this car ?
No mate, for my other cars I’ve got the Haynes manual to help me work
Nice
Thanks bro👍🏻
