Peugeot 205 diesel starting problem - battery ok
My K reg Peugeot 205 turns over but refuses to start without priming the fuel filter. I changed the drop in fuel filter, primed the fuel line to clear any air, the car started and ran all day without problems until the next morning, when I had to prime the fuel line rubber bulb again before it started.
The next day I had to prime the fuel line again and kept turning the ignition until it eventually started with clouds of white exhaust. Today I could not start it at all. The battery is fine.
Should I try bleeding the injectors - how do I do this? Is air getting in to the system somehow when it is standing overnight? Can anyone help?
