  1. Thanks for the input. I will see what of use to me once the mechanic has a look over it. I tried to start the car on Saturday for the first time since it died on Monday. Absolutely nothing, clicked and that was it. Thought it could be the battery so let it fully charge over night and the same thing happened again on Sunday, made 0 difference. Even went to Halfords to get a new, more powerful battery and it did nothing, so it's not the battery. Now, it could be the starter, maybe it's one of the fuses.. Couldn't check the fuses as it started raining again... any idea on this issue now? I'm really not having a good time owning this car. So many issues in the space of 8 days after it ran completely fine.
  2. Hi, really appreciate this. I will try to start it on saturday. If it starts, that's one big worry out of the way. Fuel lines - I'll check but it's probably going to be the ones at the back of the engine, I'll follow from the fuel filter and check everything. PTU - I read that it's better to just upgrade to Series 2. Was there different PTU for non turbo and turbo engines? I see some online available but they all seem to just mention VG30DETT... Injectors - I will inspect and order a new seal kit. I'm not sure new injectors would be necessary if I do find they're leaking.
  3. Hi guys, picked ups '94 manual non turbo the other week. Took it to work on Monday, car worked fine. Went out to the shop on my lunch break, 2-3mins drive. Went back to work, parked up and the car stalled and wouldn't start again. Tried starting it a few times. Car flooded. Took 2 spark plugs out just to have a look, soaked in fuel. Anyway, had to get it recovered home as it wouldn't start. It was dropped off home yesterday as I couldn't sort a recovery truck on monday evening. However, I have noticed that when it was unloaded at home, there was a puddle of fuel on the trucks's bed and then on the floor. I was wondering if you guys have any ideas? I haven't tried to start it since Monday evening. I'm gonna leave it until the weekend and see if it starts when the petrol cleared out. The weird thing is that there was a fuel leaking on the recovery truck. From the FRONT of the car. The car had corroded fuel lines on the latest MOT advisory, but if it was leaking from the fuel lines somewhere, how would it end up flooding the car? I'm not sure if the car was fuel starving, and just built up extra pressure hence why flooded engine - especially on my short trip to the shop and back, it would be dumping more fuel in since the engine was cold. I am gonna take it to the garage, but first I'd like to go over potential issues myself. Just want to know if I'm dealing with 1 issue or 2 separate ones. i.e. leaky fuel lines hence why fuel on the floor AND leaky injectors? Maybe it's down to sensors, I don't know at this time. I will have a look at ECU diagnosis, should be either code. 45 (injector leak) or 51 (injector circuit - harness etc) Any input appreciated. Surely I'm not the only one that's had this issue.
