Yeah it was fine

Is filter on right way around?

Try wiggling filter around when cranking, see if fuel starts to flow?

Fuel is going to fuel filter but isn’t filtering through. 

Surely this is the answer then?

 

I've had a problem on my petrol chipper of too much air in the inline filter, seemed to stop it building up the suction to get fuel through. Not sure your arrangement but I tipped fuel in to the suction pipe and that got it going.

Any update on this yet ?

I've just had this on my stp6. Forst changed the fuel pump and its all good now. I think it happened because it run out of fuel while chipping and sucked some dirt through.  Or could just be coincidence.

Change the filter. Still got an issue sythen the fuel through. Still got an issue take the tank off clean out and put back. The last one is a pain in the arse but can be done but I would say if crap got in the tank then that’s probably where the issue lies, all the rubbish falls to the bottom of the tank and sits there blocking the lane. If you blow down the fuel line back in to the tank this will clear it for a time but the problem will keep coming back until the crap is out of the tank. Hope this makes sense.
