looks like your really getting into this harry!
might check it out myself...

HarryX · 23-10-2003, 12:31

Looking dodgy again for me

Just been up to redline.. Gotta take my car in tommorow.. Was lazy start the other day. then today wouldn't start.. battery only give me one go but thats usually enough..

Seems it might be the non return valve or air getting in somewhere... battery is supposedly ok.. get car started and battery charges up ok.. would seem diesel isnt staying in pipe ready to start again after leaving stood for a while.. a better battery may give me more turns and force it through.. so new battery. But it shouldn't have that prob anyway so there gonna search.

When I get it back i am gonna have to be assured 100% its fixed or leave for long periods a couple of times to make sure it starts before confident enough to go anywhere

Some days I hate cars

HarryX · 24-10-2003, 10:12

Bit more confident they can find the problem.. I was told to pump this thing?  Under the bonnet.. no idea what it was.. I dont know owt about diesel engines... Anyway it should ahve been full of diesel.. it wasnt and when I pumped it through the car started first time.... Took car in this morning and he said now they know what part of system is failing its now a matter of finding the exact fault.

grrr fingers crossed. Hopefully get back today and fit for sunday

WINGY · 24-10-2003, 17:31

I know the pump well harry. Manual priming is needed on deisels after running out of deisel (i wouldnt know this from personal experiance honest). sounds like yours  has a seal down or something of that nature, if you find you need a new pump deisels are not cheap. Theres a firm in blackburn (think its walsh and midgely) that can recon or repair at a fraction of the price.
hope its sorted for sunday ;D

HarryX · 24-10-2003, 20:48

Well I got the car back this evening.. 86 quid worse off.. New battery and one seal sorted that wasn't broke but wasn't quite right.. Left the car untouched and will see how lively it all is tommorow.. But looking good.

Almost deffo off to Barra on Sunday for the banger racing.. 3 wheeler stuff should be good fun.

WINGY · 24-10-2003, 21:03

sounds good to me harry. and the better half aint workin this week, and she loves it. need to see what roys up to.

Roy · 25-10-2003, 09:40

looks like i'm going balloning tomorrow morning so i aint going to barrow. will find out for certain tonight when i call the balloon weather line!

HarryX · 25-10-2003, 10:35

Car started first time this morn.. so looks like the dodgy seal was the prob.. new battery for just in case as the old one didnt have enough kick to have two goes at starting it if required...

So balooning eh?  All things considered I would rather be on the ground watching three wheel cars giving it some

Taking me and the girls as wife and sons cant go...

So you there wingy? hehe I should be... Just need to stay off the pop today... Cup game.. cup draw at 5.05 .. just hope where in the hat and get a good league team

HarryX · 25-10-2003, 11:58
