Video is a bit large so hoping this works - had to zip it up!! will try a shared link too https://photos.app.goo.gl/2C5uJ4SFj8oKWHeT9

Right. Here’s a video of starting attempts. Will not start today at all!! Nanocom file attached

I haven’t no. I’ll get the readings from the Nanocom for SF and then have a look at that next. I may post a video of it as it might trigger an “oh” moment for someone!! Thanks for all the help so far chaps

Hmm. It’s a thought. My head keeps going to something related to fueling on startup, almost like it doesn’t get the fuel in the engine to kick in - but I don’t know what as when it’s running it’s fine. Sometimes holding the key in pos3 forces it start but other times it goes “dark” and electrics...

update from today New injector harness fitted - no change!! started 2/3 times and wont start again now. Seems to be ok when cold which is odd. Haven't managed to do the CPS yet as I cant easily get to the sodding thing so thats, possibly, a job for the weekend when I've got a bit more time

Ah thanks. I’ll bear that in mind. It did look pretty involved!! Going to replace CPS and injector harness first as far more simple then tackle the seals as as next step if needed!

Ok thank you - will try it that and hope, as you say, it’s not the harness!

Have visually checked all all fuses and relays appear ok. I need to check with multimeter but unsure on exactly how to do that so will do some googling!

I’ll update again when I’ve changed the CPS. I replaced the starter about a week ago with a new Denso unit as I originally thought it was that but doesn’t seem to have made any difference! The earth lead to the starter and ignition cable look ok - I couldn’t see any signs of chafing or wear near...

Thought I’d get the jump on the disco this morning and record the non-starting as it was -3c and hadn’t been started for 4 days…. Started first time without issue! And again this evening. Bloody thing CPS fitting tomorrow if it gets above freezing

Thanks! (And thank you to everyone that has replied so far). Will try to fit CPS this weekend and try that. I’ll also record the non-start again with the Nanocom and see if I can get better readings and post here Injector deals was mentioned so will consider those too - the write up on...

No drives fine when it’s running. No loss of power or anything. After running starting again is pretty much guaranteed not to work though!!

well this is the nanocom file - dont think it shows anything of value, but I'm not entirely sure!! fault codes haven't come back since clearing the only thing I've noticed is that the fuel purge and use of accelerator seems to aid with starting when its not playing ball - but not consistently

Started 3/4 times this morning which was less than helpful as I was recording to the Nanocom to get crank speeds on failed start. Recorded but now waiting for Amazon to deliver an SD card reader as that appears to have gone with the ex wife (if only she’d taken the disco too!!) Will update...

I’m going to need to record as it changes too quickly when watching it “live” - seems to go from 0 to 850 pretty instantly when I turn the key - ironically it started fine just then! Checking Nanocom 2 faults have now registered; 3.7 - air flow circuit logged high 19.6 - noisy crank signal has...

Thank you. Battery clamps are tight and earth has good contact from what I can see/feel. I’ll get under it at the weekend and disconnect it and clean it up just in case Voltage at idle - 14.3 Voltage on crank drops from 12.7 ish to around 10.5 Tried to start 3x this morning. 1st and 2nd fine...

It could be but no issue when driving/idling and FPR was replaced last year

update - checked the R1/R2 relays this morning and the fuse for starter and fuel pump - all seem ok - dry and no oil. then tried to start (from cold ) and started first go - bloody thing! haven't tried again as I'm thinking I'm going to need to be abel to get it going to drive it down to the...

Ah ok. Thanks Kev Stupid of me but I hadn’t thought of that. Will give that a go in the morning- can’t be arsed to go out in the rain now!! Si

Fuel pump is working. It starts to turn then dies. Not just a “click” - like it’s turned half way and then hits resistance and stops - and all the electrics go dark
