    Hi everyone looking for a bit of help please.
    I have a Volvo which i have been rightly stitched up with. The fuel Somehow leaked into the engines sump and caused the car to rev to maximum on its own . There was black clouds of smoke so thick you couldn't see twenty feet away. Okay, so we managed to stall it out without the engine seizing. And return it home . I stripped the inlet manifold and erg valve lifted the injectors, and removed every trace of oil i could find.
    Im not a mechanic. But have to do most things on my own due to money.
    In the sump i found basically what looked like Glitter. . shards of steel 2-3mm but thin wafer-like.
    cleaned that all out. Flushed the engine, cleaned that out.
    Reason i was just cleaning was to clean out the contaminated oil and any debris and see if it would start.
    so next i bleed the fuel system, ok no air left
    And low and behold she starts up, vibrating and shaking as though shes going to cut out. There's White smoke out of the back but she starts to settle down i think.
    When i rev her after ten or 12mins of warming her up, its as rattly as a bag of spanners, and the smoke "White" hasn't gone.
    It hasn't lost any water at all.
    Next bit, Here comes the fecking neighbour .
    "Oh thats lumpy" Says he and "its only firing on two or three cylinders" . And proceeds to pull of the lead to No.4 injector. And she dies. And no matter what i do now she won't start.
    Now im stuck with this piece of crap, its up on adverts and trying to swap it.
    The long suffering Mrs needs a good car we have a daughter with special needs.
    But help a lad please before xmas . What do i do here . What happened. Im no mechanic but i'll have a bloody good go at most things.
    HELP PLEASE.
    Markus.
