02 2.0 Diesel non starting - bantam1
hi there .. looking for some help (AKA pointing in the right direction)

my 02 plate mondeo diesel cut out on me last week and ever since has been a git to start when warm .. cold starting was ok until i fitted a new fuel filter as i was lead to believe that could have been the problem... on refitting the new unit the car will now not start at all ... turns over fine and all electrics seem ok ...(no dash warning lights appearing) i am now begining to wonder if the original engine cut out was a symptom of something more serious...

any ideas.....

cheers
Adam

When changing the fuel filter did you bleed the fuel system? Sounds like there is air in the system, i think this should self bleed if you just keep turning the engine over.

by the time its self bled, its likely the pump will have died due to no lubrication.
