Hi
We have just attended the War and Peace show in the UK.
On the way home the truck was badly missing intermittently and lacking power.It also stalled at tickover a few times. It would then surge for a while and then slow down again.
The previous owner had problems with the in tank pump but replaced it. Everything was OK the last time we went out (250 mile round trip). He also put on a small filter instead of the primary one which he disconnected. I fitted a larger one but I suspect this is the cause of the trouble as I am sure that it's fuel starvation. I am going to replace the original primary filter (and the others) but could not find an element as the centre diameter of mine is 33mm and the ones I saw at the show had a smaller hole which did not match up with the perforated plate that sits on top. Please can anyone confirm my diagnosis (or not!)
Thanks,
Martin
