hi there,
i recently bought a 1983 110 with a sound chassis and a isuzu 2.8 TD in it. All was going well with rebuilding the both front hubs and shocks all round etc when a few days ago i lost all power and had to grind to a halt.
when i tried to restarted it, it would only idle and would not pick up any power.
so ive changed fuel filter, fuel pick up in the tank and checked all the fuel lines and still no better, it would be ok for a few miles and then play up again.... and now wont fire up at all.
i did notice the electrics went a bit haywire at the time with fuses being blown and gauges reading wrong.
ive run a 200tdi for yrs and am unfamiliar with a isuzu lump.... wondering if it could be something to do with the electrics on the injector pump?

hi

new to the forum - so go gentle

had exactly the same problem with mine after fitting the isuzu engine - turned out to be the fuel filler cap wansnt 'breathing enough' so would run for a while until the fuel filter emptied due to the vacuum created in the tank and would chug a bit and then came to a stop.

new filler cap - issue solved - nice and cheaply
