Hi again. Well, I've had three great weeks of trouble-free SeriesIII driving and now have a problem that occured without warning. I used it on Tuesday - all ok. Today (Friday) went to get going and the engine would not start. With the help of the wife's car and jump leads I got the engine to fire up but it only lasted for a few seconds and it just died. It's a 2.25 diesel. Things I've checked tonight....
The shut-off cable retracts fully and is connected properly.
The fuel pump pumps fuel both manually and with the engine turning over.
The fuel filter has been inspected and all air removed
The two bleed nuts on the injector pump and pump control have been bled.
Surely all four injectors can't be knaff at the same time?
As a novice mechanic (lol) can anyone suggest the best things to check next to try and locate the problem?
Many thanks,
Skismo
At least mi starter motor still works, my red gear stick is in the right position and mi new seats are still stuck to the seatbox !!
