Good evening all,
I have a 1995 p38a 2.5dse that is currently refusing to start.
It used to be my wife’s daily driver but we bought an l332 around a year ago. I kept the p38a as back up at my work shop. I start it every few weeks and allowed to run for a while.
However, I hadn’t started it for five or six weeks and now it refuses to.
It turns over great but I’m getting no fuel to the injectors.
The key is synced to the car and operates the central locking with no problem.
I thought it might be the in-tank pump which has gone in the past as when I disconnected the fuel line from the outlet side of the filter housing and turned the ignition on there was no fuel.
I’ve just fitted a known good one and to no avail.
I’ve disconnected the first fuel line from the injector and cranked the car, no fuel is getting to the injectors but I know the in tank pump is good.
I’ve checked the fuse and the relay in the under bonnet fuse box and they are okay.
Can anyone help point me in the right direction please?
Cheers,
Andy.
