Hi All, hope someone can point me in the right direction. Last thursday my 75 diesel tourer cut out outside my house after a journey of about 3 miles. It started up agian to allow me to get it on the drive but then would not start . With the fuel guage being around the 1/4 full as the car was parked on my sloping drive thought the fuel guague may be faulty and it had ran out of fuel? put 2 gallon in but still no joy, made sure fuel was getting through which it was and both pumps working. Eventually it started after a weekend of trying and recharging battery. Ran fine all week until yesterday when exactly the same thing happened again after the same journey. Cut out at top of drive , started again to get it on drive then wouldnt start, this time it was full of fuel. went to it this morning and it started first time . Any pointers please?
