    TD5 dreadful starter & runs with fuel starvation symptons

    TD5 dreadful starter & runs with fuel starvation symptons

    Sorry all, forgot to say. Damn thing is a bitch to start after it cuts out as well as mornings etc. And yes Mr Ratty, there is a gurgle from the pump. You would think it was pumping air with liquid in it rather than liquid with air in it.

    Did the diagnostics, no fault showing. As for the fuel pump, was noisey as hell so changed it for a new one. This one is also noisey.....but not as noisey. The old pump sounded almost like a cat having an operation without the benefit of anaesthetic!

    May be worth mentioing, Disco went well with no starting & running problems BEFORE we had an exchange transfer box fitted. This was carried out without removing the main auto box. Possibly not related but who knows!

    Got a very nice 2002 discovery 2 that er indoors adores. Car recently developed a starting problem. Just the same as an old style diesel with air in the system. Once it does start, runs great for about 5 mins then peters out. At this point, the pump sounds like its pumping air. Changed the fuel...
