We take the return off the pump and spin the engine over into a clear glass and hold it up to the light

I had a similar problem with a modeo crank no start a injector had shorted open circuit with caused a engine malfunction and would not start I did all things you advised to avail but it worked out in the end. Thanks for the videos very helpful.

I have same problem. Did you change fuel pump or any other details?

Hi Leon, just a side note!, I had trouble starting my dads Focus 1.8tdci after I changed the filter. I was told the rubber ring seal goes on top of the filter not under the filter housing lip ?

I've just subscribed and dont even like cars, ha ha, but I do like your approach, down to earth honest, no bull and knowledge. I'm better with bike engines but have done my bit on 4 wheels over my time including vans, but I try not to touch 4 wheels now. Keep up the good work fella, I'm learning all the time although I'll unlikely use that obtained knowledge.

Thanks for sharing this. I have Ford Mondeo 2.0 TDCI 2009 and have same problem according to car service where I have been and they told me except all that cleaning I need to to change fuel pump and 4 injectors in order get it fixed. Otherwise they don't give a guarantee that only cleaning will help. It's really insane amount of money they asked. I didn't believe them first, but after watching your video I am starting to convince. What's your thoughts about changing fuel pump and 4 injectors? Is cleaning should be good enough?

Got to love customers. .. rarely do you get accurate information or honest anyway. Lol. Excellent vid Leon!

I'm having a similar issue with a 2010 transit rwd 2.4. Fuel pressure is low (80kpa) but no error codes at all. I was thinking new fuel pump time, but with no codes I'm stuck on what to do. Any thoughts or diagnostic tips please 🙏 cheers

Cheers Leon, brilliant diagnosis gained lots of fault finding tips! Like the look of diagun or should I go for launch mini pro? What would u buy lauch, autel or something else cheers sandy

Hi, I’m guessing you know the lynx engine backwards. I’ve just done the CHG on mine and now getting P0087 combined with fluctuating pressure (between 17k and 40k) up and down up and down in a perfect sign wave. No blockages in the return. Leak off tests passed. New pressure sensor. New filter. New leak off pipes etc. running out of ideas now. Any suggestions?

Hi Leon I am trying to find the solution for my Ford focus 1.8 TDCI crank no start one question does it have an sperate pressure pump to build up the pressure before starting the car.

Hi, would driving with fuel low warning light cause the pump to go? I have a 2010 fiesta diesel and was under the impression they are ok to run dry? I am now having cranking issues. Seems to be going the way of this video.

No mate no high pressure pump is designed to run high well in fact know pump it is really designed to run dry on a car as far as I know petrol and Diesel have a special additives through them which lubricates everything just imagine it as your engine it needs oil to keep running engines don't like running dry neither do pumps

Hi mate yes if you bring some spare engine oil with you in a little tub and leave it in the back of your car if you think you've got bad diesel in the car starts acting funny you can pour some oil into the diesel this will make it smoke a lot but it will protect the pump and the injectors enough for you to get it pumped out and fill a fresh diesel

Hi mate no such thing as a stupid question any engine can suffer from this what actually happened is the lubrication is gone from the pump which is destroyed it I do see this more on the Delphi diesel systems than any other car but technically speaking any high-pressure pump or anything along them lines can suffer with this

bodgit and leggit garage hi buddy. Quick question if I may. Do you recall me asking you about wheel wobble? Well I’m still trying to pin it down. It a Ford tourneo mini bus. on a 06 plate. It’s been through mot. No problems with bearings, bushes etc. Had wheel balance checked. I’ve noted that there are no spAcers. It happens a little at around 20 mph. But quit bad at just over 40 mph more so on accelerating. At around 50 mph it stops. No steering wheel wobble. No foot brake movement under breaking. What you thoughts please.

Should of scrapped it when the first engine failed. Don't know why people pay £800-£1000 on an engine swap on a £1300 car. Of course the owner will be paying for Leon's time diagnosing, then another engine swap fee.
