Peugeot 306 (1993 - 2001) - 96 1.8 TDi Starting problems 26 Sep 2009 (Forum)
Hi all, got an annoying issue with my beloved work-horse It's approaching 140k so is no spring chicken but runs as smooth as the day i bought it In a nutshell the problem is starting it: if I try to restart it after being let for say less than 4 minutes the engine turns over but it doesn't start (to describe it better if it were a petrol i'd say it's not firing) to get it to start i manually pump the fuel through using the manual pump thing lock the car wait for the immobiliser light to go red again then unlock, input the code and try again 99% of the time this sorts it PRoblem is it drives me round the bend, especially if i'm filling up with diesel, i ahve to go through this on the forcourt!! -
