this constant starting problem is really starting to piss us off now.
Purely for fault finding reasons, i've plumbed the diesel feed from the primer bulb straight to a clear inline filter, then to the pump inlet. I've fitted a non return valve before the primer bulb, and the fooking fuel is still running back!!
One thing I cannot fathom though is why would there be air leaking back out of the inlet to the pump? i pulled the end off the filter end with the other end on the pump and you can hear it hissing back up the pipe, and only stops when a finger is placed over the end.
So next i decided to plumb the primer bulb straight to the pump (purely for fault finding reasons) and its still not holding pressure.
WTF is going on with this old dog?
