Misfiring under load and loss of power, various fault codes stored for injector faults.
The fault was cured by adding 2 x Forté Diesel Specialist Injector Cleaner into the tank, running the engine on idle for thirty minutes and carrying out an extended road test.
After the road test the misfire was cured and the power was restored. The owner also reported two weeks later that the van had never run so well.
