Hi everyone ,thanks for allowing me to join your forum
my problem is
Fiat Punto TD60 176, 1997
I bought a Fiat Punto for my son , after a few weeks , the engine cut out ,on the road ,
We towed it home , and a mechanic said the diesel pump was broken,
We bought another diesel pump ,same part number , and removed the immobilizer from the cut out solenoid, and wired it direct.
The pump now works , and pumps diesel to the injectors, but the engine will not start .
The injectors are good
The glow plugs all work
The timing is set correct to orange timing mark on pump.new timing belt fitted
New fuel filter fitted
Engine compression is 400 psi /20bar.
But the engine wont fire.up
The mechanic now does not know why,
Is there a crank shaft sensor or any other electrical device stopping it starting????.
Thanks
Laddo
