Car wont start. Was low on diesel but put another Gallon in from my emergency can. Car turns over but wont start. Called out AA who connected up to their diagnostic computer but could find no fault. AA Patrolman then sprayed fuel directly into the engine and the car turned over perfectly. Once again though, under normal conditions we tried to turn car over without success. The fuel pump could be heard running in the boot area. We are completely stumped. Could there be an error in the ECM which is preventing fuel reaching the engine? We are getting desperate now.

Test the pump pressure, and change the filter, these are the two most common problems.
