Why is my auto start/stop not working?
The outside temperature is too high or too low. If the battery needs too much power to supply the fan, the start-stop function is switched off. It may also be the case that the start-stop function is still supported, but the air conditioning system is automatically reduced.
Does automatic stop/start save fuel?
Does stop-start help save fuel? Yes – in situations where you’re stationary with the engine idling, such as in heavy traffic or waiting for traffic lights to change, it will save however much fuel would have been used by the engine while the car is stationary.
How do you start a semi after running out of fuel?
Prime the fuel system by turning the ignition on (Run position) for 30 seconds, but do not start the engine. This allows the pump to prime the system. Turn the ignition off, and then crank it for 15 seconds. If it does not start, repeat the first task and this one until it starts (cycle the key).

Was getting contribution codes for 2 cyls on the right bank. Try to wiggle the wire harness were it runs by the turbo and around the oil filter housing.

Can a car run for 1 minute then die?
If you immediately try to restart it, it won’t start, but if you wait a few minutes it will then start and run normal for a minute or so then eventually throw an injector code #1 or #7, then die after another 30 seconds, like it’s running out of fuel. You can do this exact scenario over and over.
Why does my diesel engine start then quit?
You don’t say if it runs for 10mins, 10 seconds etc etc, makes a difference but if it starts and runs good then quits in seconds, you’re probably into a safety feature designed to protect the engine. If it starts and runs for several minutes theyn probably a fuel flow issue, filter, pump, vent, squished fuel line etc.
What to do when your motor dies after running for 5 minutes or so?
On some bad coils, the machine gets great spark until it warms up and then the coil goes out until the engine has time to cool down. Fire it up and as soon as it dies, pull the plug and check for spark. If you don’t have any, you will probably have to replace the primary coil.
