hello everyone I have just gone out to my disco 1 3.9v8 to go to work today and it wont start no work has been done on it and it worked fine last night I have been looking on here I can tell you I think its a fuel issue as no fuel is coming out of the bleed valve last month the same issue was found to be the immobiliser and as such has beeb bypassed any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Check the coil top connections as that is where the EFI ECU gets its signal.

Could be the ignition module broken, that's the little black box that's either on the side of the distributor or mounted on an alloy bracket and connected to the distributor by a link lead.

think immobilizer problems as I found the pump ok lots of clicking when turn the key on and all ignition spark etc good but no fuel when I was tracing wires I found a cable (green and red) from the fuel pump relay to inerta switch looks a temp fix? all wires been wiggled / connectors pulled apart and put back together by pedals thanks for all advice.
