01 1.9d intermitting engine cutout/failure - dieselpower
My mas 1.9 diesel (non turbo) 206 has started playing up runs fine for days/weeks then some times refuses to start or will start playing up while driving (lumpy / missing)
Ive checked the usual problems when it fails to start - ie removing the fuel line at the filter and priming to check the fuel isnt running back to the tank causing an air lock but it seemed fine. serviced it after this and it run fine for 3 days but now its back.
I left it running in the drive the other day and after 10 mins the idle changed slight surging then come ok then i heard the (diesel knock) as if it had advanced the timing then everything back to normal for a min then it just stopped.
Any ideas?? i was thinking on changing the fuel pump in the tank first

slt
