Engine starts and then dies

Postby Jan357 » Tue Apr 30, 2019 12:11 pm

Hi.

My 2010 2.5tdi Pathfinder has a problem as it starts but then stop after a few seconds.
Only way to get it started again is to pump up fuel pressure by hand with the rubber bladder under diesel filter. After pumped up it starts right away and runs perfect.
This happen when parked at least over night and first time after not running for two weeks. Seem like it appears after shorter time parked now.
I also think it only happens when parked with front lower than rear. But this I am not 100% certain of.

Anyone have an idea of what causing this?
