my 2001 iveco daily 35 turns over but wont start the engine oil was low ive toped this up as someone told me it has a low oil cut off but still does not start diesel is getting to the injecters it will start with easy start but wont stay running oil light stays on ive tryed to tow start it with no luck
on the injection pump is a metal cylinder approx 40mm by60mm with 1 wire attatched this is the fuel cuttoff solonoid,make sure this has 12 volts when dash lights are on,if not run a temp wire from bat+ to solonoid terminal and try start.if no result,remove wire and unscrew solonoid carefully as there is a spring and plunger inside.remove spring and plunger and refit solonoid and try start.if it runs u will have to stall it to stop it.to test solonoid remove and replace spring and plunger ,on the bench connect battery - to solonoid body and battery+ to small terminal,should go click and rtrtact spring and plunger.if it does'nt then its bitched.renew.If none of the above starts then u have a fuel feed problem.All this is caused by a lack of fuel filter changes so make sure u renew the filter.any probs,repost.
