    fan blowing at max constantly

    Hi last week as i was driving my fan went from 1 to max without me adjusting it. Now its constantly blowing and the heat adjuster works fine as does everything else but i cant turn down the blower by twisting the knob. Its very annoying and loud. Anyone else experience this maybe????

    It turned out a badly fitted clifford had caused the fuel pump to drop pressure but not totally immobilise the pump. Thats what made it so hard to find. Thanks for all the suggestions.

    Im hoping im close to the problem. Even with the fuel pipe off the pump, when you prime it theres not great pressure when i cover the fuel pump pipe with my finger?

    Right everythings back together but no still no start. The iacv wasnt spinning at all so cleaned that and freed it up. So what im wondering now is what pressure should fuel be pumped at? The reason im asking is that there is only a trickle of fuel coming through the fuel pipe when u take it off...

    battery seems fine. engine turns over strongly. im thinking air or spark problem and im trying to narrow it down by checking certain things. As i said before, when it was started it was perfect. Its really frustrating theres no engine light showing.

    People are saying battery but will someone please tell me why the car should not start off jump leads on 3 different cars? I cant see the logic in that at all.

    its not the cold start thermostat valve anyway. Im taking off the idle air control valve next to check that. No doubt ill be back later!

    Yes theres a strong smell of fuel. Im going to take out the ecu fuse now if i can find it! Also im taking out the cold start thermostat valve to see if its opening and closing correctly. The plugs are firing because it half starts and then dies. ill try these few things to see what happens first!

    car struggling to start

    Even after a long drive and turning off the car for 10 minutes, she'll turn and turn but rarely starts. Is there a cold start valve or even i heard of a fifth injector that gives extra petrol for a cold start? when it starts its choke and idle are perfect. Surely by starting the car with jump...
