Turn up the boost if it's an Isuzu engine.
If it's Vauxhall throw it in the bin.

It'll probably be a Vauxhall engine.
The Isuzu ones say turbo or diesel on the rocker cover in red IIRC.
My mate has had the same problems with 2 of these Vauxhall diesels, head problems, cooling problems, turbo problems. Generally poop.
I wouldn't bother tuning a Vaux TD.
