Technical Panda II 1.3Multijet

To add - My rebuilt pump is leaking from the same head that had a tiny weep before it was rebuilt. Basically, new seals fitted and it's now (much) worse. I most likely damaged an O-ring but its odd that the same head is leaking. It will have to be replaced with a service exchange pump.

Maybe something is warped?

the car started directly by pushing it with gear number 2, but difficult tot start by starter? New battery, new starter. So it seems an HP pump issue

I was reacting to Dave's leaking pump. Your commonrail has AFAIK a valve that can fail so it's not holding pressure.

which valve ? one time the engine is started all pressure consigns and measures are similar

The service exchange pump I had ordered and paid for has been refunded, because they actually don't have any available until at least mid May. Its a bit of goof up TBH but at least they've dealt with it quickly.

Can anyone recommend a rebuild service for the 1.3 JTD common rail pump.

What's history of the car

We started with not turning over

Then an immobiliser error

And now we have 50% fuel pressure at cranking

Seeing as fuel pressure during cranking is directly dependent on crank speed

Are we sure it not connected. I very much doubt we have three seperate problems unless the car has got some strange history

Connect a second battery via good quality jump leads. This should increase the available starting current, make it spin faster and increase the fuel rail pressure.
