Hi, and to the Forum. I cannot personally help you, as I have no Renault knowledge, but somebody else may be able to help.

Can you explain more about how it's going to the pump but not going out? I'm assuming you've replaced the pump?.

[kangoo michael]

Hi thanks for a speedy reply, I've not replaced the pump (Yet ) when I remove the fuel inlet pipe on pump and put it into a bottle then turn the engine over the bottle starts to fill , when I reconnect the fuel pipe and turn the engine over to bleed the system nothing comes out of the pump even when I assist by squeezing the black fuel bulb,

[Rp0thejester]

If I'm reading that right, your pump is sucking and pushing okay. Have you tried to block the 'push' pipe to see if pressure builds? Have you traced all pipes from pump to engine? No kinks etc, have you recently replaced the diesel filter?

Stop solenoid would be the first port of call for me

[kangoo michael]

not sure where i sen my last reply , fitted new filter , there is no injector pipes fitted onto the pump at present, ive tried forcing the fuel into the pump whist cranking the engine but still nothing comes out any tips or advice about changing the stop solinoid or how to check the current to it would be welcome

[kangoo michael]

have removed stop solenoind , checked that its not seized it operates when the engine is cranked ,now its re assembled in pump , re checked current flow with nord light which lights when engine cranked i, new crank sensor fitted , fuel cut off re checked ,good supply to pump but only a dribble comes out
Where do i go now please

[Rp0thejester]

My thought at this point goes back to a kinked piped, if not kinked then a blocked pipe that would restrict the flow off fuel. Don't blow down one end of the pipe to check, blow down both ends as blockages can work as a non return valve in one direction

[xantia_v6]

Which model of Lucas pump? Is it one with an electronic immobiliser?

[kangoo michael]

its the epic pump when cranking i have removed the flow pipe into a bottle to check i have a good flow also removed the return pipe and diverted the fuel into a bottle to check fuel goes into the pump but does not come out the injection pipe outlets

[Rp0thejester]

So you got fuel pressure to your injectors but nothing comes out...

[xantia_v6]

You probably need to have the diagnostics read to ensure that the injection ECU is happy and the immobiliser unlocked.
It could still be something mechanical in the pump.

got pressure upto and into the fuel pump but with the injector pipes removed only a dribble comes out the pump outlets
