Where do we find bongo friendly garages on site.?

sounds like a fuel problem.
have you checked the banjo filter, ive had a few with clean looking banjo filters, but when you fish them out there is snotties hanging from the bottom blocking the flow. or swap the main filter,there are some very poor ones about.
or the old fault of the tank breather blocked. try it with the cap off. if this is the fault the main tank breather is blocked, this is attached to the chassis near the gearbox breather pipe chassis.

Search me, never used either of them. perhaps someone local will come on and tell you. Pixe and the moon lives very near Flookbrough. Hopefully it will be one of the simple remedies suggested by Ady.

Cheers guys for all posts printed off a copy from data base.bad news but,I've just changed the filter removed banjo bolt and screen all spotless,bled and started ran fine for a minute then a noise started from the injection pump! Can only describe as like a solenoid rattling as soon as this occurs the lack of power starts ,conclusion pump grubbed I think and it's never been on veg oil in its puff.hopefull it's covered under warranty I have (three years and the paperwork states mechanical pump covered )

The Laird,

Ady is a mechanical Guru so take his advise. Garage we personally trust if you cannot fix it is Camp Road Garage, Moor Lane, Flookburgh, LA11 7LS. They have no beards to stroke (as in this will cost you) and do a good job. Local lads.

Depending on where you are in Windermere they could be 30 to 10 miles away. Hope all is ok Friend. Please PM me if you need them they do pick up's.
