ZD30 cranking but not starting?

Post by joshy »

Gday,
started it the first time fine to pump up a tyre, turned it off and went to start it again 10mins later but it wont go. Checked the primer pump and its hard, getting fuel out the return line to the fuel tank. Its cranking but just doesnt want to fire up?

Is there such thing like a fuel-cutoff solenoid like the TD42s have?
Or is it all computer managed?

The ZD30 is computer controlled cut off solinoid. crack one of the lines leading to the injectors and crank the engine over see if its getting fuel out of them, if its not the cut off solinoid, the Pump ECU or the engine ECU is dead
