Hi

A friend of mine has a 200tdi Disco, he went to whaddon off roading, drove home fine, parked up and when he came out the next morning could not start the disco.

The engine turns over but will not fire, he also got his brother to tow him and try and bump start it. again no joy.

Anyone have an ideas suggestions .

Thanks

Steve

If it's turning over fine and not starting with a tow i'd say it's a fuel fault, try changing the fuel filter.

KingWolf:
I had exactly the same problem on my 300TDI. Check the fuel stop solenoid. Take a 12v feed straight off the battery to it and see if it starts then. If it does then obviously theres your problem, just remember you'll have to remove the direct feed to switch off the engine.

Sounds like the solanoid on the pump! bump starting is the best way 2 snap ur cam belt! NOT CLEVER!!!
