Ignore this, I got onto Redwood and they solved it in minutes.

Redwood found the issue

I cant Mick, ive seen it now

[Mick Dempsey]

NOOOOO! anyway, it was a bit embarrassing, I didn't realise there was an inline filter as well as the metal one, I knew my Timberwolf had one and replaced it regularly.

 

I just thought as I didn't see one that there wasn't one, but it was tucked away Inside the frame, and it was clogged up!

 

Muppetry on my part.

here's a vid of the problem, the glow plug fuse is ok btw, I'm thinking worst case scenario is the ECU playing silly buggers.

Hope its not that crappy pcb computer Mick

 

Hope its a simple fix

[Mick Dempsey]

I had issues with the 'puter before, the stress control was not working properly, they got it down to too much vibration on large timber shaking the box so that the rollers wouldn't restart.

Some more rubber mountings seemed to sort that out.

 

I'm hoping for a simple fix as well!

Air in fuel line, my bet.
