1981 Diesel won't start.And 1998

My 22r diesel has 280k. I can't get it to start anymore. The motor turns over and over and over and over... no problem. It acts as if it were not gettin fuel. I don't see a fuel pump as a replaceable item. Any ideas on what it could be.


I also have my 1998 4runner, that needs to have the starter replaced/rebuilt.
Any ideas on where I can get a rebuilf kit for the starter. I'm assuming the starter is the factory one. ?Nippondinso? I will be removing it this weekend.

I own two of the most reliable trucks on earth and niether will start....
Weird.

This guy may have the starter contacts that you need:

As for the diesel I don't think it's called a fuel pump likely a called a injector pump.

No clue where to start.

I would get a chiltons on diesel toyota's.

Also adding things like kerosene to diesel will cause it not to run as well.
With a situation like that the fuel tank would have to be purged of the bad fuel.

Your diesel might have air in the fuel lines. I have heard of that happening.

I've had some diesels (daihatsu rocky 2.8td,BMW325TD) and had similar problem-look at the fuel lines-they coud be rotten and have some cracks.
Look for the fuel filter it should have a pump on top of it-pump it up,and then try to start it with few heatings of glow plugs-that should do the trick.
And yes- if you have manual idle control -crank it up.
Let us know if that helped.

that's a 1L engine, not a 22R

i'd say bleed the fuel lines out, check all filters, etc. no white smoke coming out of the exhaust like it's trying to start?
