51 reg t 280 75 transit timing solenoid

Postby napster » Sat Oct 09, 2010 7:43 pm

I'm having trouble with my transit at the mo it turns over quickly but doesn't fire. It runs after towing it but doesn't start after a while. I'm wondering if it could be down to the timing solenoid not the metering solenoid that's in-between the injector pipes .

Thanks tony

Not likely to be either of those 2 i`m afraid...............
Either air ingress/filter head fuel supply...............
OR pump failing.
More details, :idea: i.e vehicle may help
