Stevek83 Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 evening, I have had a starting problem with my grand voyager since I bought it a year ago that has know come to a head. I have had a very random starting problem, where sometimes you get in and it would fire up straight away, but sometimes it would just crank over, I took the key out and started again till eventually it started. It was very random in terms of when it used to do it, it could go minutes, hours or a day with out a problem or it could do it all the time. I have changed the battery to a fancy gel one, two starter motors, crank and cam shaft sensors, new fuel filter and primer part on top. ( when this was changed it was perfect for a week, then all of a sudden back to normal.) since then priming the fuel guaranteed a start. Now nothing works it just cranks and cranks. There is one of the injector tops that's a bit damp and discoloured but when running the car runs perfect. Can anyone advise and help me I am loosing the will with this car I have never loved and hated a car so much at the same time. Tia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguin2007 Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Silly question - going back to the fuel filter..... Is this still 'clean'? HAs it any condensate in? If so you may have picked up a duff load of diesel, and as a result if the tank is getting low - fuel floats on water ..... you suck through water until it gets churned up... Worthwhile having a look at a) state of fuel filter, & try taking a sample of fuel - more difficult these days because of the anti-siphon kit, but you can get around this,with a bit of lateral thinking.
