6.2 Engine
Faults Possible cause
The engine does not Starter defective or pinion not engaging Fuel tank
start empty
Temperature below starting limit
Fuel filter clogged, in winter due to paraf- fin
separation.
Fuel lines leaking
Battery discharged or not connected
Injection valves or injection pump defec- tive
The engine starts Battery power too low, battery clamps loose or
poorly and works oxidized, causing the starter to turn too slowly
irregularly with poor Especially during winter: the use of too viscous
power engine oil
Fuel supply restricted, in winter fuel sys- tem
clogged due to paraffin separation
Incorrect valve clearance Injection valve defective
Injection lines leaking Turbo charger defective Dry
air filter dirty
Excessive play in the throttle cable

Have compression rings and pistons ex- amined
by a specialist, adjust the valve clearance
Adjust the valve clearance
Clean the cooling fins
Have examined by a specialist
Top up engine oil to the upper dipstick mark
