engine turns over fuel getting to injectors but wont start offers with aerostart

I think you need to explain exactly what is going on & what you have tried to do to get it started - more information ------- Quoteoffers with aerostart???????????

I believe aerostart (like quick start) is a volitile spray used for starting engines that are difficult to start.

CRC Aerostart is a unique and special formulation which combines a number of ingredients, each designed to play a vital part in starting engines. It has powerful anti-corrosive and anti-knock qualities and contains an upper cylinder lubricant.

but what the offers bit then? typo for other than with?

normally glow plugs isnt it if only starts with a spray?

Hi Guys,
my '01 2.8jtd is exactly the same. I've done a bit of research on the problem and here's what I've found.

The common rail engines do not have sheathed element glow plugs like non jtd engines but have a flame glow plug instead, it's on the inlet manifold near where the air pipe from the intercooler joins the manifold. Now for the fun part! I've a copy of the 2001 Bosch Yellow jacket book on electronic diesel control and on page 90 it talks about starting common rail engines. It seems that all direct injection diesel engines will start straight away without any form of preheating unless the temp drops to 0deg. It states that when the engine is cranked at starting speed it reaches the auto ignition temp of 250deg for the engine to start.

So, why are our engines not starting? The possibilities that I've come up with are.
1. Insufficient fuel vapourisation to reach 250deg, faulty or dirty injectors.
2. Low fuel pressure also leading to the above.
3 Weak starter or battery so engine not turning over fast enough to give full compression and so low temp.
4. Worn rings, low compression.

Well guys,what do you think?
Keep well,
Torq

Had a similar problem with an 03 2.0 JTD started ran fine, then sudden loss of power then required easy start to start, it finally would not start under any circumstances vehicle had

:nutter: New Battery
New Starter Motor
:bang: Just about every engine management sensor replaced
:worship: Finally they replaced two injectors
Now the van is back to normal


Hope this helps

My 04 2litre has just cut out and it seems to be fuel, can you bleed a JCR engine? if so how, as I think my fuel guage is on the blink and it might be out of fuel. but the warning light did not come on

You can only "bleed" the low pressure supply side as the common rail systems operate at such a high pressure it is dangerous to touch the high pressure side. Here is a post on how to bleed the fuel system after changing the fuel filter. I would assume the 2.0JTD would be the same
My article on changing the fuel filter can be found here:-

yep, diesel fired at your skin under 1200-1600 bar of pressure is gonna nip

Hi
Don’t know if this applies to your engine but I had an astra diesel that point blank refused to start on the key but would start on a tow.
Turned out to be the leak off pipes between the injectors they had become brittle and although not leaking diesel they were drawing air maybe worth a look, cheap and easy to replace.
Good Luck

And potentially poison you if you get it straight into a vein!:yuck:
