Re: [diesel_mercedes] not getting fuel to start

 

Yep, ran the charger and block heater for 1-1/2 hours. Started on the first pop. A block heater in cold country is a diesels best friend. Max

Same thing happened to me with my 240 4spd. Car has been sitting all winter, and I do mean winter, not California. Would not start, and when it's cold my starter always kicks out and it sounds horrible. This was yesterday so today I plugged in a battery charger and the block heater in to a cheap tiny generator, 1-1/2 hours ago. 30 more minutes and I bet it will start on the first pop. Max

Hi all, i have not driven my car since its winter now but last time i drove the could not get my car to start on its own.  the car appeared to not get any fuel.  i had my wife turn it over and i pumped the plastic primer while she turned it over and got it to start.  But that appears to be the only way i can get the fuel going to start the car.  any ideas?  once it started it drives great.  thanks guys.
