i need help...as all i want to do is throw the car away......
i have been suffering an engine cut out problem on my 300tdi 110 (1996) for 6 months now and several LR mechanics plus loads of cash have not been able to help me identify the problem.
Problem is...the engine cuts out and will not start again for at least 10 minutes or so. It appears that the engine is not getting fuel. it always seems to cut out when the engine is warm, and (maybe) when the fuel tank is approx third full (still collecting data on this one)
so far i have changed the following.
fuel lift pump
immobiliser
fuel filter
solenoid
solenoid (terminal connector)
checked fuel lines and no sign of wear or air ingress
what would be the next step ? and, will the engine digagnostic box help identify the problem ?
could it be dirt in the fuel tank, and if so, how does one clean it out ?
would any other electrical systems cause the fuel switch to cut out ?
a bottle of fine italian wine from my local vineyard in italy for the magic answer........
