[injection pump solenoid problem??]

what age? 2 button remote or single button?

if it's a 2 button remote then search the forum for spider as that will fix it.

As a temporary fix wire that live feed to an accessory feed like the radio which will only come on with the key and will go off when you turn off the ignition

Thanks, it's a 95 with 2 button remote. As a temporary fix I ran the wire inside and put a switch on it. I read Bogmonsters spider fix, so it looks like I'm in for a good time eh!

[injection pump solenoid problem??]

Hi, I just fitted a new lift pump on my 300tdi, come to start it and it would'nt. The solenoid on the injection pump was'nt clicking so give it a tap with hammer and it started clicking when i put a live wire onto it, but it still would not start. I then kept the live wire on it and it fired up straight away. I have to disconnect this wire to switch the engine off. All fuses are ok, I see the solenoid is connected to the glow plug controller (I think), all wires are ok, so is it the glow plug controller or something else?

[fuel bleed problem]

is the wire still on the pump or did the wire brake as you put the lift pump

if it's still fine turn the ignition on and tap the conector onto the switch if it's clicking reconect it. and losen the injecter pipes at the injector's and turn over till a good amount of fuel is seen retiten the injector pipes and try starting( it may start while you bleading it).

Thanks, I tapped the solenoid on the injection pump and it still would'nt start. I then touched a live wire onto it and could hear it clicking but it still would'nt start. I then kept the live wire onto it and it fired up straight away. I have to disconnect the wire to kill the engine as turning the key won't. All the fuses are ok so will it be the relay thats gone?

[fuel bleed problem]

I've just fitted a new lift pump onto my 95 disco tdi, now it won't start. I have fuel going into the injection pump and returning via return pipe, but there is nothing going to the injectors. Has the injection pump gone or does it just need bleeding, if so how do you bleed it?
