Td5 rough running when first started from cold

Hi people just wanting to no if yous could shed some light on my problem, I have a 02 plate td5 discover 133,000 when I go to start her in the morning cranks as normally 2-3 turns she fires but runs rough ( like low on fuel ) then revs pick up then makes a funny noice as in the abs pump shuttling for a fracktion of a second then revs are at idle and stay there but if I go to drive straight off after start up it's is flat no power give it a second or hold my foot down then vroom were off only dose it when it has been stud for couple hours, now I have just done the injector harness on sat just gone NO OIL in red plug or ecm, I am thinking fuel system

Have you tried doing the purge procedure to see if that makes it start OK?

Cheers

No I will try that in the morning if it starts better where dose that lead me ??

Could it be the fuel filter housing with the shuttle valves in

I had a similar problem when I got my 2002 Td5 auto in 2013. As I had been adding 2SO to fuel in my old Disco 1 300Tdi auto I added some to the Td5.
I also filled it with a tank of the top grade BP ultimate fuel. I don,t use supermarket fuel, add 2SO every time I fill up. Cured the dodgy tickover immediately.
Always starts and ticks over fine and I do NOT have any smoke at all from exhaust.
Cheap to try and eliminate.

Potentially chasing lots of things......

If you do a search on here for TD5 starting you will find an amazing amount of threads.

Plus on Youtube Landrover toolbox have a series of videos regarding starting issues on the TD5.

Try the purge first and see what you get......Good luck.

Cheers

Sounds like a fuel delivery / presssure issue. Possible leak in the system somewhere

take the easy way 4 a start injecter seals genuine parts

2S0 what is that ?

Would injector seals cause this ?

2SO is two stroke oil. Cheapest mineral base you can get. I buy mine from Morrisons, £2. for a 500 mil bottle
Add at 100 to 1 basis. If you want to check this out just goggle " 2SO in diesel" keep you reading for a month.
As I said, cheap and worth a try.

Injector seals sounds like a culprit

Did the 5 pushes on the pedal to prime the system left it for 5 min still no different

Did the purge procedure actually run?

Sounded like the pump was running it stopped then started again then stopped and started again so on

Thats normal during the purge, it should take a 5-6 mins to do the purge.

Ok so the cars been sat at work cold start fires and runs like a bag of s**t revs pick up then go to idle speed press the throttle down really lazy rev increases back the revs off put the throttle down again a little slow the boom revs as normal, would it more likely to be injector seals as in until the injectors built the correct kpa to run at ? But the noice it makes every time it lets the revs go to idle from its rough running gets me

I do have the water in fuel light on the dash will that do it

Yeah, drain the sedimenter or whatever it has, also sniff the oil

Yes there is a faint smell of derv in the oil so am leaning more to injector seals weekend job I think
