I have a problem with my 2.5 Diesel it has fuel up to pump but no fuel at the injectors. 12 volt at the stop switch. No faults on the dash and no faults when connected and checked with a hawkeye.
The car has done 94,000 miles and was running fine prior to not starting.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated

Thanks

Faulty stop solenoid ? Take it off and bench test it. Easier if you remove the inlet manifold
 
With the ignition OFF, take a length of wire from the battery +, and tap it onto the stop solenoid. It should click on tapping it, if not it's buggered! If it clicks for the first few taps and then stops.......... It's buggered!!;)

Loss of sync?
 
Sounds like the same problem I had. Was the fuel stop solenoid. Huge long thread about mine but basically that's what it was. Happy to come and help if required.
 
You can undo the stop solenoid and take out the plunger and refit the solenoid without the plunger to confirm it is the solenoid. This will also enable you to use the vehicle whilst waiting for a new solenoid. The engine won't turn off on the key like this so you will need to stall it.

Nonsense. The stop solenoid is a backup to the system that shuts the engine down in the event of a failure of the quantity servo to avoid a runaway. It is not safe to run the engine without a working stop solenoid. The engine will shut down when power is removed from the quantity servo and it returns to a no fuel position.

How do you stall an auto?:rolleyes:

Think the lad is referring to the mechanical VE on a manual car. Not the EDC injection pump. Which would stop if ignition was switched off even with no closing stop solenoid.
