Looks like the diesel pump has gone on the misses car; apparently it’s a common fault on them, I find out now.
£1400 from Ford
, just had a look at a place in Blackburn called Diesel Bob they recondition them, anyone had any experience of them?
If you’ve got a Diesel Focus sell it now, I could have brought another bike for that

Obviously this might not be the right year for your car or yours may not be a turbo, but they are about secondhand for a lot less than £1400

Not that easy unfortunately modern diesel pumps have a microprocessor built into them, it that that’s gone, can’t get one from a breaker as they have to be coded to the cars CPU.
Modern emissions, marvellous.

Tell them you'll have it if they include the CPU
