96 Ford Transit 2500D Start

Hello. Someone would know how to explain if the 96 transit van carries heaters. It does not start in cold and in the workshop they have told me that it does not carry heating. The other day I called the Race to start it or take it to the workshop because, again, it did not start. They threw ether and brrruummmm. The Race mechanic told me that it was a problem of heaters and the I tell him that he did not carry, he laughed and told me that all diesel vehicles have, one way or another, but that they have and that my van carries one. Does anyone know where it carries it?: And if not, why don't you start in cold?
Thanks in advance. All the best.

So that you stay calm it is like that, all Gasail engines have heater, but I advise you to change it for a mechanic !!

The Ford Transit does not carry heating, the reason for the starting failure can be sympleously that the injection pump is discharged (quite frequent fault in Ford) by air entrance to the diesel pipes through the rapid plugs.

To know if that is or not, just park it downhill in a pronounced slope. If the next morning it starts the first and yet in doing so uphill, it does not start, it is a symptom that the tubes are discharged and the pump injects the little it has inside the same pump and fails until the diesel goes up again from the tank.

Another way of seeing it is taking out the arrival and exit tubes of gasoleum to the pump and putting a carafe high, purges the circuit, starts and the paras, leaves it with the carafe up all night and if in the morning it does not fail it is because the pump has not been downloaded (because the hook is higher than the gas pump).

The solution to this problem is to replace the rapid plugs with spikes with a clamp (of those of a lifetime) and put an anti -background valve in the suction tube of the injection pump so that it is not discharged.

Another cause of this type of breakdown is the lack of engine compression due to wear and mileage, if it has been failing to start, it pulls blue smoke and lacks the engine, it is possible that it is because it is low compression.

My advice, (that in that I do agree with the rest) take it to the workshop and look at you, and if it is a workshop specialized in diesel injection better than better.

All the best.

They sell a special non -return valve for those cases, what measure is the pipe and short the mangitus that comes from the tank before the diesel filter and it is placed this valve makes sense of flow. Moves and tests

Support what they say but take a look at the admission that will surely carry an air heater for the parts of Germany for example, but I lean for an air intake in the food circuit. Megabyte you are good
