GALAXY 2.3 ZETEC AUTO uk 'V' reg

NON START.

It all began about three months ago when.......

 

Turn key, no priming sound.

Engine cranks but won't fire.

Led on door flashing.

Sometimes engine started and ran but Led continues to flash for about a minute.

When running there seems to be a hesitation in gear selection around 10mph then a tug. Feels like a stall on a manual car. Then runs normally.

Occasionally happens at high speed causing car to die momentarily and then picks up again.

Had crank shaft sensor replaced. No change.

Had isolator switch replaced as advised by Ford Dealership.

Priming 'buzz sound now is reliable but doesn't want to fire. (Tries once or twice but now consistently fails)

 

This started as an intermittant fault. Increasing in frequency until now not starting at all.

 

Got to the point I need to sell this but can't bear the thought! I love this beast!!

What if it's a stupid simple fix? I'll kick myself if I see it driving around after a part ex.

 

Can anyone help me??
