2002 mondeo TDCI - Mondeo TDCI wont Start - carless2011

Hi All I have a mondeo tdci which my wife has been using regularly for the past 2 years with no problems then 2 weeks ago she parked it up outside the house next morning it would not start checked for fuel full tank looked for any leaks and could see nothing, checked the forums & saw that the cam sensors fail so bought one of these and a crank sensor and fitted both. I must admit that I did change the fuel filter at the start of my fault finding but as I have a fast flow of diesel coming out of the return pipe when it is removed I presume that the pump is working and most of the air would be out. I would appreciate any help or advise any member might be able to give me. Thanks in antisipation Chris

How curious, the same troll response from two accounts. Dare I say fake accounts?

Any flashing coil or check engine lights? You might want to invest in a f-super code reader.
