Ford Focus Starting Problem

Firstly can you give more info on the origin of this enigne, and whats it fitted in now, and what work it required??

Yes there *is* probably an immobilizer-which is built into the pump, and secondly, it will not require the glow plugs above about 4deg c.

And thirdly, yes the transfer pump vanes within the injector pump do break up.

Tim..

Maybe it is just air in the fuel filter so engine doesn't get fuel at all... I think this is first thing you have to check.

There is also a fuel cut-off switch in the front door pillar.

Do the TDDi's have a fuel inertia switch? I know some of the ford diesel's dont. If so then as alan said its in the interior trim panel behind the n/s A post.

I take it u r using the injection pump that came off of that car.
