Bit of a long shot but not had any joy with Google.

My T350 wouldn't start a couple of weeks back, wouldn't turn over but otherwise seemed fine. It turns out the starter motor had failed so I replaced that yesterday and it now turns over nicely. However, it won't actually start, or more accurately won't stay running. It turns over, catches and sounds like it's about to run before it shuts down and dash displays "Warning Code 4 EFI Fault". I've not been able to find anything that can explain what this might be. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Cheers,
Ian

Is there a recommended diagnostic tool for these cars? Is it too much to hope that they are standard OBD-ii?

Glad to know I'm not alone!!

I'll try and find my way around the engine bay and give everything a bit of a check and clean and see if that resolves it.

Hi Ian,

if you have a Windows PC you could use either the old TVR Software or my new one, which is free. You'll find it here:

You'll need an USB/Serial Adaptor and a Diagnostic Cable, which you will get from all the known suppliers.
Thanks for this. I'll have a read later and see what I can get sorted.
