Hi,
I’m an ex-fully paid up UK Cougar Club member who’s been out of Cougars for quite a number of years now - I’ve reached out to you, as I wondered if you might be able to help me save my dads old Cougar please?
He has a 2000, Tourmaline Green 2.5 Auto with leather, reversing sensors etc, which has been left outside, standing unused for about 2yrs…
Its actually still in lovely, solid condition with a great engine/ gearbox and a superb interior - however, despite my trying, it’s refusing to start…
It has plenty of (new) fuel, it turns over freely and will fire-up briefly on a drop of easy start, but the fuel-pump isn’t running - although it has power…I’m pretty sure the pump has seized…(or the immobiliser is cutting-in?)
I wondered if this is a common problem with an easy ‘enthusiast-knowledge’ fix, or if you might know of the whereabouts of a pump I could buy please?
Unfortunately, my dad suffers from Vascular Dementia and Prostate Cancer, so it’s down to me to try and save the Cougar - however, he & the Cougar live in Reigate, Surrey…I live nr Kettering, Northants!
Any thoughts or suggestions/ help would be greatly appreciated - Thanks!
Kindest Regards,
Guy Muller.
