No go

[nemofish2000]

Well mrs started car today and moved about 10 yards and it cut out, had a go at starting it and it turns over but wont start, got a lift pump coming as of previous fault so im hoping its no fuel getting through. Getting to the point of wishing i hadnt bought this thing and stuck with my old 99 2.7, never missed a beat in 4 years of ownership.:doh

Check fuel primer on fuel filter. Should be hard (the black doodah) :thumb2

That my friend is what i think the problem is as the 1 fitted is from a mitsubishi so im waiting for 1 from a breaker, hopefully should be here early next week.

Cheers

Is the black primer hard though? You should not be able to pump it.

Disconnect the fuel pipe from the pump and see if it's pumping fuel, does sound like a fuel issue

Thats the problem the primer on the lift pump has never worked so like a man over 60 never gets hard.

I think you need to up the 70 bit ...
Ah.. probably explains when the engine has a fault, it goes into "Limp mode"


:lol:lol:lol

Bit of an update, got a different filter housing and fuel filter and the truck fired up no problem, put a new front pipe on the exhaust all sealed no leaks but ive still got a shortage of power when you get into 3rd and above, and now when i accelerate and it revs over 2500 rpm ive got a whistle (not a tune i know :doh). Its kind of doing my head in now, so please answers on a post card, Cheers.

The dreaded turbo whistle...
I assume it comes in when the Turbo spools up.

I had this when I had a new front down pipe, Kwik Fit fitted it and agreed to change the down pipe for another manufacturer, problem solved.
So it could be the new pipe, or a poor seal between gaskets.

My thoughts were poor seal, i fitted it this morning with new gaskets took it for a run heard the whistle so removed and refitted with gaskets and paste and its still the same. Im dreading that the underpower is turbo related.
