Hi,
I've just completed a service on my 05 scudo 1.9diesel; air filter, complete oil change and new filter (didn't look like it had been changed in over 4 years judging by colour of oil) and fuel filter; the van is now refusing to start, have tried putting key in, turning on till coil and fuel light go out and turning off and removing the key again to reset the ecu it will almost start using 1/4throttle but then dies again.
Think it may be air in the fuel line, does anyone have any advice for getting the van to run again? The only info I can find suggests towing th van, and putting into third to get it goin but finding a vehicle to tow it is going to be difficult, and there's nothing to guarantee that it will work or that it is air in the line.

Any advice would be appreciated
Many thanks.
 
spray some easy start in the air intake-some recomend less volitile hairspray/deoderant? If no start then check all electrical connections....resetting ecu will only happen by disconnecting the battery.
 
Undo the union bolt and then pump the filter plunger, watch this video below the union bolt he shows at 6.30mins, it always works for me
