1984 307D Van 2.4d Starting / Running Problems..
Afternoon All,
I'm a new member to the forum. I've owned a 307D Campervan for 6 years & never had any problems. Having had it off the road for the past 18 months, I've started re-commissioning it for use. However, I have what I think are some fuelling problems - having driven it for the first time earlier this week, it ran for about 2 miles, then the engine started losing power, and eventually died - and refused to run at more than a stammering lumpy idle even at WOT position. I thought this may be old Diesel Fuel / dirty tank syndrome, so I stripped down the fuel filler, fuel tank, and all associated lines, drained the old fuel, flushed the tank and the filler pipes, replaced all old fuel hoses and joints. Whislt I was at it, I removed the radiator, changed the fuel filter (spin-on type at the front of the engine), and replaced al lwith new items and new anti-freeze. This was a day's work - today I filled it with around 20 litres of new fresh Diesel - now the engine turns over on the starter, but refuses to fire at all (before it was firing intermittently). I suspect now I may have air-lock problems in the fuel lines - but I'm no expert - or is this likely to be something else I've missed. ..If you can suggest any fault-finding I should try next, or have any ideas, I would be much appreciated. Many Thanks ! Terry. |
