Fiat Scudo JTD
was suffering leak past on two injectors when i first got it a year or so ago, i managed to get them two injectors our cleaned the seats and replaced the sealing washers, all back together and sorted, apart from it leaked fuel badly (would leave a puddle on the floor when you parked it after use) the diesel would pool around the top of the injectors and then dribble down the engine. Wanted to sort this as its a fire risk and also not helping my MPG.
So i pulled the same two injectors out to clean them up and reseal them, and pulled a third intector that was carboned up and suffering some leakage. struggled like hell the get the sealing washer out of the 3rd injector, eventually got it out to find some chisel marks on the in injector sealing seat, not sure if i did these or they were already there?
Cleaned up all the seats really well with towel and carb cleaner then reinstalled all the injectors with new washers and put everything back together.
Turned the key it turns over fine but won't start!!
When i did the first two injectors last year i didnt prime anything, i just turned the key and it started up, it maybe cranked a couple times more than usual but it started and ran fine.
Now no matter how much i crank it, it will not start. After cranking it looks as though there is a fine mist of possibly vapur lingering around the injectors?
At a loss as to what to do next.
Anybody work on these and have any suggestions, really dont want to have to take it to a garage if it can be helped!
Any help would be massively appreciated
Thanks
