Hi Guys!
i got a pd130 thats giving me some strange issues
a while back it started taking a good 40-50 cranks to start. and once started it was fine. i noticed the tandem pump was leaking diesel. so i changed the seal and all was good for 1 week till it started doing it again.
Weather and temp is irrelevant, as you can park it up, 2-3 hours later it wont start. but if you start it within the 2 hours it will fire up no issue
One thing i noticed is if you hold full revs when you FIRST try to start it, it will fire up no problem.
i have replaced the intank fuel pump and fuel filter but still no joy
i thought diesel was leaking back into the tank over night, so i clamped the 2 diesel pipes from the tandem pump overnight to see, but still wouldnt start
Any ideas? my injectors had new seals fitted about 10k ago.
its getting embarrassing. i am a mechanic but i cant solve my own cars issue lol
