Did you use a standard pipe bender?
If so, did you have any problem with the 90 bend off the turbo?

I didnt use a bender I started with sheet material and ran it through a roller, turned
it into the right diameter. then you take and wrap say craft paper around the 90
deg. bend, now you have a model so to speak, and then use scissors to cut the
paper 90 model. I cut mine into 3 sections then used the paper sections as flat
pattern lay outs. these patterns are to be duplicated onto flat metal sheet.then by hand, hammer, bend, etc to get the radius. Fit all 3 sections together and weld.
I tell its hard trying to explain in writing, but hopefully you can see how the process
went.

John your problem is the fuel filter element is being clogged. you are getting fuel
but not enough of a flow rate to keep up with the pump to rail system.
I bet your not getting any codes either right? sometimes the code I think was 097
will show which indicates excessive fuel leak.
I use 100 % bio fuel in mine 2005 and had this issue over a year ago. it drove me nutts for a week before i figured it out.
you see the fuel system codes will cover and pick up temperature, and pressures
but nothing will detect the flow rate.
your fix will be to lower the viscosity of your fuel, like gasoline-kerosene-diesel.
if you choose gas keep it around 12 or 13 to 1 ratio as too much gas can cause
damage to motor. safest thing is kerosene diesel or biodiesel.
hope this helps

Fust....... the problem is that if the wiring of the plugs were install wrong then is going to be hard to determine which plug is the one that is bad.
The best thing to do is to check the resistance value first before you pull it out.

If you are still interested to use the SEGR I found the man that sells them. You can get in touch with him at the Jeepforum.com site and his name (blog name) LocoCRD. If you go in go to the second page and his in the middle of the page. PM him and he will tell you what to do. If he does not have any ask him for UFO address, I think that UFO have some already assemble.

Previous glow plug replacement by the dealer found the wiring was incorrect and they corrected the wiring .It ended up being plug # 3, I had to remove the intake pipe but what I found was a huge amount of carbon build-up in the intake pipe after the control valve and in the opening of the intake manifold, has any one else found the same issue and is there a way of preventing a large build-up of carbon,I assume it is because of the egr valve, any help appreciated.

Alternator needs changing by caribou1

Hi guys,
It's my turn now
80,000 miles is the end of the road for my alternator !
The symptoms were:
- no battery warning light during the first 5minutes after the engine is started
- when the engine runs, the battery voltage gets reduced instead of being increased
- when disconnected from the battery, the alternator goes to 24 Volts (field voltage is present)
- there is a slight AC noise (probably one or more blown diodes)
- when connected, the output voltage stays low (12 V instead of the 24 V when disconnected)
 
I guess it's cheaper to buy a brand new one than to have Chrysler charge 1,800 USD to stick their nose under my hood According to a local post, this is what was charged to replace the alternator of a Grand Voyager 2.8L CRD.
 
I had to chase two months to get hold of a set of BFG T/As. Apparently tires made in the US are hard to get

2006 Liberty CRD....Won't Start by nicku812

I have a 2006 CRD and my daughter was driving it and it just killed in the street. I recently had it serviced. Oil change etc one week ago. It has 29,500 miles.
 
Battery was recently replaced about 3 weeks ago. It has not given me any trouble until now.
 
Its still under warrant and just wondering if anyone else had this happen and if so what could it be. Thanks...Nick

I paid about $400 US for a new alternator from the dealer.
