Hi I need some help basically this all started when I got the check VSC light come on put it on diagnostics and code for large leak detected came up the car was starting really slow have to keep the engine cranking for at least 20 seconds to start up in the mornings.
basically I was advised to check injectors so I took all 4 injectors out and sent them off for bench testing where 2 can back as faulty meaning the car was only running on 2 injectors which explains the sluggish start.
while I had the injectors off took the fuel rail and the egr valve off to give them a clean, so I got 2 injectors from the breakers second hand at £200 a piece considering 2 new ones would set me back £1400 nearly what the cars worth lol.
put injectors in fuel back on egr back on and the cars not starting at all it’s turning it’s trying to start but it’s like fuels not there.
i loosened the nut on the injectors fuel line incase there was an air lock and cranked it over fuel seems to me comeing through fine primed the system and still not starting.
so I pulled the injectors out and disconnected the return line and just attach the fuel line to check the injectors while there outside the engine and the first one seems to be spitting diesel but the second one doesn’t do anything at all.
tried the same with 3 & 4, 4 seems to be spitting 3 doesn’t seem to be doing anything at all
Tried switching them over none of them work am I doing something wrong or have I missed something out and advice would be greatly appreciated thank you.
