transpalette84 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Hi, I'm new here and I have read all thread without solution for me. My 15p 2003 don't start after a travel of 500km without problem. Start ever at the first time without problem but for the first time, run correctly after the 3 start. And it's was the last time. I have 4 bar of pressure, checked with a gauge. I have check : - oil in hardness and ECU - no ecu error with nanocom (I have only crank high speed after a test to start) and injector test clic ok and no immobilizer - bleed valve, duckbill non return valve, new fuel filter and new pump. No leak from filter housing. - ckp sensor show 190/200rpm with nanocom with starter (new battery + booster) and no engine problem before I have a dry fuel engine, no smoke : nothing. I can boost engine with a small Star pilote in the air filter but no gazole and stall fast it's my first Land Rover and it's a pain for me at this time. I have read : filter inside frp and injector seal but : it's compatible with a suddenly not starting engine ? Thank for your help *I'm french, sorry for my bad English Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bear Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 You have 2 seals on the injectors. Bottom copper one will allow combustion gas into fuel and cause starting issues, Rubber O ring seal will allow diesel into oil and cause oil level to rise on dip stick.

transpalette84 Posted October 24, 2023 Author Share Posted October 24, 2023 (edited) Hi, I know this one bear, i have order the kit to test this option. I have change my CKP last night, no change : 180 rpm and start turn but dry of fuel. But i have found this thing on my fuse boxe : a ground wire on the pin 2 of the C0573 connector on the engine fuse box ?! I clean and test without after the work. no mud or dust inside connector but i have a clean fuxebox in spare Edited October 24, 2023 by transpalette84 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transpalette84 Posted October 29, 2023 Author Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) I installed a new starter and the engine started without problem. The old one hardly works anymore, in my last tests it was almost completely dead. I think I completed my original starter during my many starting attempts with the fuel problem and air cavitation in the pump. Only that doesn't explain why I have to have pin 7 2 grounded in connector C0573 to be able to crank the starter. I would like to understand the real problem to make it more reliable. I tested two BCUs and IDMs with no difference. Engine ECU should not intervene in the starter? I will still be able to test with a second ECU to be certain. What do you recommend to start my search? Thank you. Edited October 29, 2023 by transpalette84 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
