Hi
I have a 98 dse Has been running fine no problems cold or hot starting.
Middle of last week when starting misfiring for about 20 seconds then picked up ok. Did the same thing every day until yesterday when would not run.
Turns over runs for a few seconds cuts out.
Put 10 litres of fuel in in case gauge faulty
Have changed fuel filter and cracked injectors off looks to have plenty of fuel at injectors.
Spins over pretty fast good strong battery.
Desperation had the AA man out. He did the same as me checked glow plugs,power to tank pump, and bled injectors.
Result offered to get me taken to garage as he suspects injector pump but non commital.
Car has never missed a beat in the past. Even when I ripped the centre of the clutch out last year towing a FL6 complete with 10 ton skip.
I have solid flywheel with heavy duty Ford clutch driven plate. Covered 20k miles no problem. Running on bio diesel for last 18months.
Can anyone recommend an honest diesel centre in and around North Bedfordshire please or some simple tests I can do.
Regards
Simon
