Could be microbiological growth in the diesel. It grows in diesel that has been sat too long and the water content in the diesel increases over time. It'll block everything up from tank to injectors. I spent 21 years working for Esso and MBG was something that we had to regularly monitor. A friend of mine bought some "cheap" red diesel to put in his boat....the fuel had been sat too long and it made an absolute mess of the fuel system on his Volvo Penta Diesel.....he broke down in the middle of the River Tamar. I helped him clean everything up. Of course it could just be a relay 😀

[@Roverturbo]

Just sold my wife’s 56 plate 1.8 tdci, 170k. Ford went over to a wet belt for the lower cam belt at around that year, so two belts, the earlier engines where chains on the lower. Total arse to change. 100k interval changes. Didn’t wanna risk it, so sold it. Also, these don’t have lift pump.. so are a arse to bleed. Vacuum fill the filter after fitting it and you may have to crack the injector pipes while cranking.

[@Elaba_]

My Focus 1.8 TDCI stalled too in the past. It was an air leak on one of the connectors of the fuel line in front of the engine. I found it myself.

Then it goes and disgraces itself and reminds you why it is you don’t deal in snotters!! Guess it’s fuel, but bizarre that it didn’t miss or judder before packing up. I knew a fella that had a fleet of these nationwide, all 1.8 tdci’s - he liked them because they were cheap and easy to repair- but he swore that the engines would always fail at around 220k miles - you could almost time it, apparently- love the vids, can’t wait for the next one, Cheers.

No fault codes found. That occurred alot, even when RAC turned up, no fault codes. I got rid of it. Death trap just cutting out.

@bill Bloggs Not sure the diesel TDCi has wheel sensor. Just to clarify to everybody, when I say mine cut out, it would actually go into limp mode which is just as dangerous as it drops down to about 15mph max. First time it happened was on the M56. I was doing about 80mph and the warning lights and ford sound went off on the panel. So F dangerous. I managed to get it quickly onto hard shoulder. No way was I sitting in the outside lane. I would rather the speed kept up and the engine melted than Fking limp mode.

[@michalspo]

Good luck bleeding and changing the fuel filter! It is an absolute nightmare! Well the bleeding part. I would advise to change the insert filter and fill the fuel to the top of the filter housing before putting it all back. I have also poured the diseal into the outlet pipe going into the injectors and the reassemble. Only then it has started :)

[@hojnikb]

Looking at the engine bay and sound of the engine, this might be 1.8tdci, correct? I'd start by looking at the cam position sensor, These tend to break after a while and engine will immediately stop running. Then there's the usual fuel issues (1.8tdcis dont have a low pressure fuel pump, so you can skip looking at those). As others suggested, fuel filter, air in the system, sludge diesel or water could be the issue here. If you plan on changing the fuel filter, i highly recommend installing non return valve style hand pump in the fuel rail (easiest to do in the plastic rail just above the fuel injectors). This will get rid of any air, when you change the filter and make your life much easier. Renault DCIs use this kind of pump from the factory! Snapped belt(s) or dead high pressure fuel pump could also be the issue, but probably less likely. Also, i'd invest into a forscan compatible obd scanner (around 5-10$ on ebay, software is free). It makes diagnosing these suckers much easier.

[@terryjacobs2536]

Hi Rob, After reading all comments so far i recon check all fuel possibilities and if ok then electrical, reminds me of my late dad's Chrysler Avenger would drive beautifully 1 minute then cut out the next and even the AA couldn't get it going turned out a previous owner had lost the fuel cap and used corrugated paper as a temp measure and yes you've guessed it it went into the tank and semi dissolved. ended up new fuel tank etc. Again i say the joys of motoring...

[@talksr]

Another fantastic video Rob. 6 months ago, I had the same Focus but 59 plate TDCI, very similar mileage...best car I have ever owned (had it about 7 years). I commute in and out of London, the car cost me nothing but pads and disks, oil and the odd set of tyres. By far the cheapest and most reliable car I have EVER owned. It had the Lynx engine which was solid as anything. Started getting quite a lot of oil leakage at 160k, the cost to get an indy to clean engine and work out where the leak was was going to be costly, so sadly, I traded it in for a brand new ULEZ compliant car. Wish I could have kept it as it was solid as anything. Hope you can get this one sorted as I loved mine and did a similar mileage to your one in it.

[@mattyboy3908]

Cracking video as always. Not at all saying this is what’s wrong with the engine but a word of advice on this one. That’s a 1.8 tdci engine. You need to check the engine code and see if it was fitted with a ‘wet belt’ or chain. Not taking about the cam belt - this has a separate auxiliary belt/chain in oil that connects the crank shaft to the fuel pump. If it’s on the original belt then it needs changing now as it’s well into borrowed time. Not many people know about it. If it snaps it’s game over for the engine, just google ford wet belt failure and take your pick.
