Diesel ubp

Nigpercival · 3rd June 2012, 19:18

Just a bit of advice wanted, my ubp has for the past few months been quite noisy at times especially when it's cold.
Car has also been feeling underpowered and a bit juddery at first feeling starved of fuel, so hoping its my ubp I've sourced a new one and plan on fitting it at some point over bank holiday, is this a straight forward job or not, do I need any special tools etc

Sorry but you can't diagnose a failed ITP from the sound of the UBP.

If you don't believe me unplug the ITP with more than a quarter tank of fuel and drive the car - there will be no difference at all.

Sure is and there must be many CDT's running around with failed ITP's and the owners don't know anything about it until the UBP starts to play up.

My ubp failed but the itp is running fine.

Can hear it running when I take the fuel cap off

Nigpercival · 3rd June 2012, 21:27

Yes my itp seems too be running fine also so will. Hang ubp ASAP

For ease of changing remove the battery and battery box and anything fixed onto the battery box , after that it's an easy change , come to think of it i dont think its possible to change it without making room .

Also the pipe clips are reusable, they don'y look it but they are.
