^^ Otherwise known as timing being out 
deja vu, think we have been here before!
Hmmmmmmmm.....the way I understood it is that if it was leaking anywhere in the supply pipework it would drag in air when under load as its easier than sucking the fuel from the tank......
And that was sarcasm Dan, thats why I asked the question about what it was like to start after its been running, it points more to the inability to use the hand primer if it "makes no difference" IMO as that should push out all the air in the system making it easier to start

Wrote:The way I understand it is that if its leaking before the hand primer it wont affect running because the pump/filter housing etc will all still be full of diesel with no air ingress? And I see what your saying, but if it starts better after its been started then turned back off then I would still say air ingress, because once you start it its filled the system with diesel again... :think:
