    p38 4.6 engine wont stay alive after starting.

    Hi guys. I’ve replaced the ICU with no avail. The engine won’t start at all now nor did it just before the replacement. I am still getting a buzzing noise from the ICU and the display reads electrical fault. Would Hawkeye or similar be the next step? Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

    p38 4.6 engine wont stay alive after starting.

    Do you know if its supposed to spin 360 degrees freely or just a quarter turn? Im guessing just a quarter turn from the look of the casing. Cleaned it up but it ceased again after a couple of seconds.

    Actually it’s coming from the round cylinder that has the two hoses connecting to either side of the TBU (green BOSCH sticker on it)
