Stopped!!!!!!

[LandRoger]

Just changed the Gearbox and transfer box oil  in my L200  took it for a drive to see if the additive had quietned down the whining noise stopped by the river to let my dogs get a drink  after about 10 min i started the engine went to pull away and the engine cut out dead as if it was an electrical fault tried to restart and it would only turn over with no attempt to fire up, checked it over cambelt still on , fuel at the injectors ,thats as far as i got before tow truck arrived its been suggested that i should check the injector pump solinoid  anyone got ideas i could check out :blank:cheers ,

Have you checked all the earths I know it's obvious but suprising how you forget when you have a prob..

worth checking the relays havn't worked lose
sorry all i can think of at the mo

[LandRoger]

Thanks for your help m8  been all over the electrics as far as my limited knowledge allows,she,s parked up at the moment using my Vitara for a while which is a tad more economical to run ,

[Landy1uk]

No worries mate hope you get it sorted

its been suggested that i should check the injector pump solinoid

It won't be the fuel stop solenoid if you really do have fuel at the injectors.

What year it it? I am assuming that it is the pre-common rail engine.

Thanks for that Andy  yea had a mate undo the injector while i turned it over only tried a couple but yes it was squirting out all right,not tried anything else as my mech knowledge is pretty limited  i could deal with a Cortina/old mini but all those black boxes and ecu s do my brain in , its a 2001 for life model think i am going to have to bite the bullet and put it in a garage unless someone knows a good Mitsy mechanic

maybe ask around for someone who's got a suitable diagnostics unit

Been on the Mitsy L200 forum got a few ideas on things to check such as glow plug solinoied but no point in a diagnostics tool as there is no faults showing on dash. :rolleyes:have got a guy in Frome who has the kit but he says its useless without faults showing.

Well my m8s garage have rang me with message that the rocker shaft has broken  , will go check it out tomoz, ,

That sounds expensive.

Not only broken rocker shaft but the cam carrier is cracked in 4/5 places now to remove the head think the cambelt has slipped dreading the outcome just spent £850 on tyres , exhaust,battery, not going to spend more on it will be glad to see the back of it just going to cut my losses and out it,

It's never a good day when you have to make a decision like that. Here's hoping it doesn't cost too much more.
