Expert 1.9D, 3months idle, how to start - maniac5
Hi,

I've got a 1.9D Expert that has been idle for ~3 months. Tried to start it today and got no luck, it used to start first time everytime.

The starter motor turns over but there is nothing from the engine. I tried a jumpstart and the same happened there too.

I then tried a bumpstart and that did nothing either.

Whats my next course of action? THanks in advance.

Immobilizer? Are you using a different key? Has the key been dropped or exposed to strong magnetism?

Have you tried pumping up the fuel pressure with the squeezy bulb thing?

Or a quick blast of Easy Start might do the trick,but don't squirt it too much.

If used regularly,diesel engines get hooked on it,and it won't start without it.
