Help! Cutting out problem :(

Post by TylerJDerv »

Hey all,

This is my very first post i own a corsa 1.7D 3door.
Yesterday i change the oil, oil filter and diesel filter and now i've took the car out this morning to the shop and it has been cutting out nearly every corner im thinking maybe its something to do with the diesel filter being changed.

Could anyone give me some feedback on the problem im having?

Thanks Tyler

not entirely sure how diesel fuel systems work but it could be down to the filter not being entirely full and every time you go round corners you are getting an air buble in the system maybe?

Only ever wored on diesel vans but it has to be same...

... I agree could be a problem!

I have stood there for 10min pumping the diesel through!

Has to be no air what so ever mate! Try pumping the diesel through?

Just went and got some diesel from the local garage, took the top bolt off the filter and poured the diesel in gently filled it up took it for s spin no problems thus far, so im happy with the result!

Any ideas why these diesel corsa's with the the isuzu engine are terrible on cold start?

Thanks for the info guys
