How did you prime it?

 

[Philayl]

Try this, sorry about the quality

How did you prime it?

turned on without out starting you can hear LP pump in tank. Done that about seven times, filter is full, but no start

You need the DTCs and if there are none, you need to read the live data for fuel rail pressure, current draw for glow plugs etc. Without diagnostics you're struggling. Was the fuel filter recently changed, after the engine was running with no issues? If so, I've read several times that the restart after the filter change was hard, lots and lots of cranking.

This is while cranking no change

I'm no expert, but if you've connected it wrong, I'd say that priming won't make any difference.

Something that's been seen here, and elsewhere, more than once..

I've just been out to look at mine and I think yours is OK. One thing I've noticed is your central pipe clip. Is that knackered?

yes but hold the pipe still

the secret to the priming is not to just pull it through the new filter, you need to pull it through the filter and the fuel rail past the injectors to the return to tank line, then its fully primed

I didn’t pull it so to speak, I let the LP run on and off about 10 times

i have found that if you use a vac pump and pull the fuel past the top of the engine in the fuel return line, all air is removed that can cause a lock up , just a suggestion ,

This is the correct procedure.
