Re: Diesel Smoke
Probably a very silly question . But what is a vortex breather and where abouts on the engine is it .

Re: Diesel will not start
problem solved . It was a combunation of an injector not working properly and then causing the pump to work harder , then injector failing and pump failing . Not cheap but done and running like a dream .
Also did filter changes at the same time as it was in bits .
