Fault diagnosis

B13 ENGINE STARTS WITH DIFFICULTY'

Engines: 2.0 JTD 8V, 2.3 JTD 16V, 2.8 JTD 8V

The engine, particularly when cold, starts with difficulty and only after repeated attempts. When the key is turned the instruments light up as normal, the starter motor turns, but the engine is difficult to start.

Engines: 2.0 JTD 8V, 2.3 JTD 16V, 2.8 JTD 8V

8	LOW SUPPLY PRESSURE CHECK	ALL OK	PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED	ACTION
	Check that the pressure difference between pump outlet and filter inlet is less than 0.3 bar	Move on to Step 9	Difference in pressure more than 0.3 bar	Replace the pipe Op. 1040B30 FUEL DELIVERY LINE - R R
9	LOW SUPPLY PRESSURE CHECK	ALL OK	PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED	ACTION
	Check as described in Test 1040AA, that the pump supply voltage is equal to 12 V and current uptake is between 2 and 10 Amps See Test 1040A FUEL TANK AND COMPONENTS	Move on to Step 10	Voltage < 12 V	Check electrical wiring See E5050 DIESEL ENGINES ELECTRONIC MANAGEMENT
		Move on to Step 10	Current> 10 Amps: pump not running smoothly	Replace the fuel pump assembly and clean the fuel tank Op. 1040A70 SUBMERGED PUMP ASSEMBLY COMPLETE WITH LEVEL GUAGE CONTROL - R + R
10	CHECK ON CORRECT OPERATION	ALL OK	PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED	ACTION
