The valves have been checked and the compression has been checked and is ok. not sure about the cam belt slipping?, the engine was changed down from
3rd to second and just lost power and cut out a sudden occurance realy. anyone with any Ideas please, the garage have quoted 660 quid I think there

bad connection (loose/coroded ) on the fuel pump cut off solenoid??
If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

Does it sound harsh/knocking. if so sounds like the pump timing is out probably due to timing belt jumping a tooth,or two

We had a customers car come in (AX Diesel 1.5) and took a long time to start hot and cold and smoked like a WW2 vet! Turned out to be 2 leaking/dodgey
injectors if i remember!
Cant imagine that the engines are different!
Hope this helps?!

Sounds very much like the symptoms of incorrect pump timing!

Check the pump and valve timing first . Have had similar problems with tight valve clearances on that engine as well

The 106 1.5D I had suffered the same problem and got progressively worse until the camshaft/wheel key sheered, dropped the belt, bent 3 valves and
cracked the centre cam bearing cap. I ended up fitting a 2nd hand engine. Turned out to be a duff injector.
TBH the cast/forged in camshaft key was IMHO nowhere near upto the job - about the same size/strength as a Rice Krispy. Also, because the cam runs
directly in the ally head and damage renders it useless.
