0PRELIMINARY CHECKSAll OKProblems encounteredOperation
Check that the fuel cut off has not been activatedCheck that there is enough fuel in the tank.Turn the ignition switch ON for 2 seconds and then OFF.Check that the fuel pipe feels the pressure with the ignition ON.

Check:

  • Check the condition of the air filter;
  • Check the condition of the air intake circuit;
  • Check that there are no obstructions in the exhaust pipe
Move on to Step 11. Activation of fuel cut off2. Not enough fuel in the tank3. No pressure in the fuel circuit4. Obstruction in the air intake circuit5. Air intake via the inlet manifold/throttle body seal6. Exhaust pipe blocked1. Restore correct operation by carrying out theSee Test 2. Top up the fuel with the correct amount.3. Move on to Step 2.4. Eliminate the problem, if necessary, replace the filter element    Op. 1048A14 AIR CLEANER FILTER ELEMENT - REPLACE. 5. Restore the correct seal6. Restore the operation of the exhaust pipe.
1CHECK USING DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENTAll OKProblems encounteredOperation

Connect the diagnostic equipment (Examiner or other instruments) to the diagnostic socket and check:
