Cutting Out????

(1/2) > >>

sgtbilko:
Hi Guys,

Was at Tixover yesterday, everytime I was going down steep hills and drops the engine would cut out!!!!! It would restart but only when on level ground, I had just over half a tank of fuel.

Any suggestions on this?

Range Rover Blues:
What engine? if petrol is it carbs of EFi?

sgtbilko:
Sorry, it's a 300 tdi

Range Rover Blues:
On a TDi then I'd say check the fuel filters for sludge/air/water.  Does it stumble then die or cut out quickly, could it be electrical?

sgtbilko:
It dies very quickly, as soon as you reach a good angle (not nose on the ground sort) it just cuts out. I did manage to get it started once, it lasted about 5 seconds then died again. Can't see it being electrical but hey, who knows. Could it be a fuel pick up problem?
