Ohhhh, for christ sake what have I done now?
This van was running great until about a month ago and now its playing tricks on me!
Right, start at the beginning.
I fitted a new cam belt which you clever chaps deduced was too tight. Having driven around in it for probably a hundred or so miles I replaced only the tensioner. Then I couldnt get it to start, no fuel at the injectors and nothing in the fuel filter either. I replaced the lift pump and swapped a few fuel pipes around. I run on veg oil and sometimes swapping over the pipes coming from the tank get me out of trouble.
Then, with the aid of WD40 I can get the thing to start. It ran, although not very well with lots of smoke, then it stopped. I redid the cam belt and timing and this time put a new belt on it as well. Now it starts only with the aid WD40, will run fairly smoothly but with loads of white smoke but it will not idle, it will just stop if the revs drop down near idling speed.
I cant help noticing that I dont hear the click of the stop solenoid when I turn the key, either.
Any ideas?
