Hi,
Just wondering if anyone here can help. I have a Fiat Doblo 1.3 2008 van. It has had a new timing chain, new injectors and thermonstat as well as a clean of the diesel tank and EGR valve/inlet manifold, all in the last 6 months and was driving great.
It started stuttering/nearly stalling a few seconds after startup a couple of months ago, but once driving was absolutely fine. This problem was always worst after it had been sat for between 4 and 8 hours after being driven and tended to be fine on cold start. A few weeks ago it stalled within a few seconds of starting and haven't been able to get it going since. It runs for a couple of seconds and then continuously stalls.
Both fuel pumps have been checked including the fuel check valve, electrics to them are fine, ground has been checked as well as the crank and cam angle sensor. I'm getting a bit desparate as have had so much done to it, and have just finished converting it into a microcamper. Does anyone have any ideas? The only thing I can think of is ECU failure, but it was always driving great once it got past the initial hard starting so find that hard to believe.
Thank you!
