Freelander 1.8 Petrol not starting
70

Asked by EasyFreelander Nov 19, 2017 at 11:20 AM about the 2002 Land Rover Freelander 4 Dr S AWD SUV

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

The car stopped turning over. An independent recovery agent representative said it is the Fuel pump. Given the instructions for removing the fuel motor were simple, I bought a new fuel pump and replaced it. Hayne's manual is rubbish for explaining and showing you how to to prime/bleed the air out. Fuel can be seen coming through the pipework into the fuel injectors, so fuel pump is working. Checked the fuel cut off switch too and pushed the red button. Also, checked the car immobilizer fob to see if that was affecting startup, and then tick over. The car will start,  but cuts out straightaway. Appreciate ideas that I can undertake to resolve the issue(s) otherwise a home mechanic in Gloucester area.
