I have a 1998 3.9 V8 and for some unknown reason she has now decided not to start it winds over but no start.

What are the common things to look for???

What I did notice the other day when she did start and run OK when the ignition was on not running I could here the fuel pump whirring all the time is this normal ?? today I could not here it running

Cheers in advance Mike

my thought is have you reset your imobiliser ? you should have a code in your hand book that you put in via the drivers door lock on 300tdi maybe the same system on your disco
