mintalkin Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 P0251 fault code covers a multitude of faults, fuel metering valve fault, high-pressure pump,a leaking-off injector, fuel filter blocked or air ingress into the feed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themetcalfs Posted November 19, 2011 Author Share Posted November 19, 2011 P0251 fault code covers a multitude of faults, fuel metering valve fault, high-pressure pump,a leaking-off injector, fuel filter blocked or air ingress into the feed. I assume theres no way of finding which it is without going through them 1 at a time ? ive changed the cam and crank sensor and had it plugged in again and still get PO251 Injection Pump A Circuit Malfunction Ive alook around the engine and there looks like diesel sitting around the bore of injector 2 , theres not alot but would that cause this fault? its not leaking from the run off but asif the copper seal isnt sealing anymore. its done 129000 and the engine seams abit sooty like your old coal fire chimney is it ment to be like that Any help would be kindly received Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mintalkin Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 P0251 is a precursor to other codes eventually it will throw up a more specific code,basically the fuel rail is losing pressure so any leaks or air ingress will not help and could throw the code,as for the soot you may have a leak on the exhaust side of the engine or egr valve somewhere.
