2000 C280 has intemittent starting problems. Please Help in Diag
Hi all, my 2000 C280 is not starting and I need advice / help on the diagnosis and repair. IT will run but not restart. If I wait anywhere between 5 - 15 min the car will start and run between 2 minutes and 1 hour. I am considering the fuel pump and filter but these were replaced 11/07. I have my doubts that this could be the problem but I wont completely rule it out.
Is it unusual for a fuel pump to die in 12 months? I would like to check the system out. Where do you test for fuel pressure on these cars? Also could this be the Crank position sensor or is that a different set of symptoms ? I am looking for advice / procedures or other related devices that could cause this. Currently I have pulled the codes with a hand scanner and there is nothing stored or reported in the system.
Please advise
Thank you in advance
Rob
