Massive help with transit needed please

[Teasdalemk6]

Hi so other day i was driving along and suddenly no power came to a stop and would not start got recovered home

So checked fuses and relays all ok

Check pressure by cracking off injectors lots of pressuer diesel pissin everywhere

Today removed timing chaim cover amd all timed up correctly not skipped a tooth

Wats going on it cranks over but only signs of life is when i use easy start ???

Had the codes read?

^^^^ what he said, is it a mk6 tddi. N

[Teasdalemk6]

Yeah its a mk6 2.0 di engine and no i have a ob2 reader but apparently the cheap ebay ones dont read the codes i need a snap on code reader is that right

Think codes will point me in right directiom no eml light is on or doea the mk6 not even have a eml light lol

[KevofCov]

Had this with mine and tbh at this stage it could be anything..
Shot in the dark - mine was the wiring loom shorting to the body(where it runs underneath the radiator).

Coil light is the eml light, you need a elm327 and download forscan for free, mk6 are not obd2 compliant, I'll guess your fuel pump or the electric part of the pump is toast or the wiring to it around the starter motor. N

I just dont understand tho as when i crank it and loosen a injector its squirting oit like mad all chexk wiring in morning shall i visually inspect it or use a multimeter

It's probably not enough pressure to fire up a diesel engine. You need a massive amount of pressure from the injector to overcome a cylinder on the compression stroke.
If it runs on easy start, then its a fuelling problem you have

^^^^^^what he said plus a di needs alot of fuel pressure to open the injector to allow fuel into the cylinder. N

[Teasdalemk6]

Shall i stick a fuel pump on then

[Teasdalemk6]

Would a mindeo tddi fuel pump fit my van ??? Just theres someone selling a working one for 50 qiid

[ned]

Personally I would get the codes read first, you can buy the elm327 for less that 20 sovs, as for the mondeo pump I dunno but I do know the transits have two types of pump depending on the vans PS. Plus it would need coding to the van. N

[Teasdalemk6]

Where would i buy that machine for ebay

Inspect the wiring, sh*t dirty job but pull the covering off and check each wire, especially around the starter motor where they chaff, I found a few small nicks in my wiring which stopped the van idling. N

Scantool-direct.com, amazon, ebay, you need the one that says ford, Lincoln, Mazda, either wired or WiFi, go on forscan.co.uk (or .com) the website explains which one you need. N
