I dont think there was smoke from the exhaust when it was cranking over, not 100% sure though as we never checked, Would that make a difference ? Dales

Yes Im going to try and get a filter tomorrow John, just change it anyway. Even tryed taking filter off last night and filling it with fresh fuel then screwing it back on, never made a difference though, Still wouldnt start

That is what it is Shocker. The sedimentor, I personaly havnt seen it but I recon thats what it must be. Thanks a lot for the link as that helps me out when we go to remove it. Will see if my brother has a bit of clear hose and put that on as well. Once again thanks Stoem and Shocker...

Lol I dont think the fuel filter at the back of the disco has been changed for a long time, the one underneath at the chassis on the fuel line. Brother said when he was welding it he noticed the filter looked f*cked. said he didnt want to touch it incase it fell to bits. its that bad...

Aggree with you nrgserv. Too big a risk buying used head I dont know history of. I could end up with the same problem I have now. Im hoping the engineering place Iv used before will be able to fix the head on my own discovery. Just leave it with them and they preasure test it. fix it if...
