Don't know about the TD5 but on the 200 the pump has a fuel cut off switch, my wire fell off giving the same problem.

L90OOK:
Steve, your talking about the stop solenoid wire on the bottom of the pump...Td5's don't have Fuel Injection Pumps.  Instead they have fuel pressure regulators bolted to the back drivers side of the engine.

If the problem is intermittent then I'd go for the immobilizer first  :roll:

Cheers

piggysteve:
Ha ha told you I know nowt about TD5's.
Hope you get it going.

Going at last not sure what it was, tried immobilizer and checked pump and a few turns later it kicked up  WOOHOO

Ricky:
The td5 relies on information from several sensors before the ECU instructs the injectors to fire luckily only one of these will normaly stop the engine dead or prevent it starting That is the cranksensor i have known them to be intermittent .The other sensors adopt default values when they fail which generaly allow the car to run but with reduced performance. The sensor is found in the bell housing, ensure the electrical connector is pushed firmly home. When it failed to start was the engine management light illuminated?
if it does fail again unplug the connector and measure the resistance across the two sensor terminals, you should get a resistance of 1365
Hope this helps
