Hi everyone ,i,m new to the forum, and have a problem with my 99 c250td, i stupidly decided to add some veg oil to the diesel,and all was going well
,then it became problematic to start,
ive changed the pre filter and main filter,and blown the feed and return lines to the tank,and added about 15 litres of new diesel. ive used a bulb primer and sucked about 4 litres of fuel through by temporarily attaching the primer bulb to the fuel line from the lift pump to the pre filter.
if i fill the main filter, and crack the injectors at the head, the car will start and run fine and rev up until the filter empties,
Im thinking my lift pump may be at fault,as im getting no fuel pumped to the pre filter,if i crank the car over,
what do you guys think,
many thanks in advance for any help
