dash test done all working
was running fine parked up never run since

Hi,

Be welcome;if it runs with easy start,it means no electric problem ;
But i think,a lack of high pressure (injector,pump etc..)

You can try this to confirm:

Thanks i have a common rail pressure sensore on order just in case. would that show up as a fault on the ecu or not.

Also would you know if a diagnostic can read the ecu and look for problems does that mean its ok

Thanks..

Sorry forgot to add it diddent continue to run with easy start stops a soon as eay start run out..

could be the sensor on the pump im not sure if you can get anything to read the fuel rail pressure as it may be too low.

other thing is have you tried the leak back of injectors by nipping the return pipe on each injector in turn. look for the how to on that as it will show you the correct way of doing the leak back test

Thanks craig8661 tried the leak back test. wouldent the car caried on running with easy start if it was leak back

[craig8661]

im not sure on that with what i have seen from others posting it can stop them running. have you tried tow starting it worth a try just clutching at straws now tho

[peter loines]

Yep towed it or 3 miles nothing no smoke out of the back and all dials were working speed revs etc....

You can have a leak elsewhere in the high pressure system hence my "how to "

don't forget to get a ignition , 400 bars are necessary !

The engine may not run if an injector is leaking, if the leak is bad enough you wont be able to maintain the fuel pressure needed..

My moneys on a badly leaking injector, so do the test asap.
