Fiesta tdci diesel pump problems
I've got a fiesta 1.4 tdci 05 plate, been very good car since I had it in 2008 but lately been having lots of problems. The main problem is the fact that I have to pump the diesel sometimes by hand by the little pump next to the engine. I have to do it most mornings and sometimes in the day. It doesn't start so I pump it by hand and it starts. Been told many different things, one being that there is a hole somewhere letting a small amount of air in, but been recently told by a friend of a friend whos a mechanic to get rid before it dies, because apparently its a common fault and the only way to sort it is to completely replace the whole fuel system. I don't want to get rid as its a good car normally, never failed an MOT. Can anyone give me any advice on whether they've heard of this sort of thing before. Thanks
