2000 Discovery II 4.0.
Water pump went out, then engine died.
Replaced water pump,engine would crank but willnot start.
Pushed inertia switch, to reset, but still willnot start.
Any help.

 

How many miles on it, have you ever replaced the crank sensor, do you have a check engine light on and does it turn over, just not start?

 

It has 95600 miles on it, I only have owned it for a year now.
So I do not know if the CPS has been changed or not.
It did get hot when the water pump went out.
Is there any way to check the CPS, to see if that is the problem?
Thanks again.

 

Yes it does crank over, but will not start.

 

Test for CKP sensor is bare spark plug, attach to existing plug wire, lay on manifold, watch for sparks when cranking. See attached.

If you get sparks, you can try a squirt (less than 1/2 second) of starting fluid into the throttle body (not the MAF). If starts on fluid, could be no or low fuel pressure.

 

I tried the spark plug wire,with metal screw out of the plug boot against
metal manifold, cranking engine you get a spark.
Tried the starting fluid quick 1/2 sec. spray in to throttle body.
Still will not start.
Checked the fuel pump relay in under hood fuse block, it is OK.
Any more suggestions?
Thanks for the help.

 

Could it be the security system, not letting it start?
How do I check that?
Any Help.

 

The immobilization would make dash LED be on steady when key turned on, see page 1339 of the workshop manual..
