Van won't start

[Blackness76]

Hi All
I have a 61 plate transit that will not start, has had the copper washers replaced on the injectors, a new starter motor, new fuel pump solenoid and rail pressure switch battery is fine , alternator is fine , turns over but just won't fire up, had all filters replaced in April and has been running ok, although was a slow starter before

any suggestions / help would be greatly appreciated starting to cost me work now

Thanks in advance
Craig

We’re the scv and prv genuine?

Can you see what the fuel rail Pressure is actually sitting at?

I’ve heard of the new scv pistons being stuck before.

There are no codes showing up, mechanic managed to start it by adding fuel into the filter, could it be that there is no fuel getting through?

It wont start but your mechanic managed to start if by adding fuel to the filter Can you be a bit more specifc Has he checked the fuel pressures when cranking

Sounds like an air leak...possibly a duff filter housing, connectors or lines.

63 plate will be Euro-5....?? Either way, the crank sensor is mounted near flywheel, see "6C-315" here..:

It's a 61 plate so don't think it's a euro 5

Yes, you're quite right, I made a mistake. Happening quite often lately Must be old age catching up with me...or dementia....or old age...or dementia...or....oh dear.

Crank sensor should be in a similar place though.

Euro5 changeover was at the end of 2011: '61' plates are in the middle of it. Airbox is a giveaway, they're totally different between the two, or ETIS will tell you for definite.

[Blackness76]

Checked my V5 definitely a Euro 4

Think someone is having a laugh here, still struggling to find the sensor, if it's where I think it is then you need to be some sort of magician to get to it
