Not that is has helped me I have done oil (fully synthetic Penrite) and oil filter as close to every 5k as possible. Fuel filter every 10k since long range tank install and air filter every 20k (don't see the dirt much). I have only used Nissan oil and air filters and Donaldson fuel filters. I...

I have been using Donaldson filters for what it's worth.

There was so much metal in the filter even after flushing the tank that the engine light came on because the water sensing float in the bottom of the filter was jammed after a couple of tanks of fuel. I will dig up the pictures showing the metal. I just assumed that the filter would do it's job...

Old.Tony I agree with the majority of what you are saying. I could have written my post better. The main issue I have is not being advised in advance that the pump electronics wouldn't be covered by warranty. I advised at that the start the vehicle had a re-mapped ecu. I also expected the...

The car has now been fixed. The report from Cooma diesel on the pump was that a return line restriction caused damage to a valve. It also had a lot of abrasive wear. They are claiming it was all caused by my '4WD systems' long range tank. It was full of rust as it is plain steel with no coatings...

The pump was dead. It's being replaced. They are saying it appears that a restriction in the return line has caused a component to fail damaging something else in the pump. I hope to get better detail when I get it back.

The pump hasn't got enough pressure to get a single injector to open. The pump is coming out.

Still no go it's looking like the pump. The crank angle sensor has been replaced and now there are no error codes. The primer and fuel lines have been replaced as it wasn't priming very well. The starter motor has been checked as a cause. Going to check continuity on all the wiring from the pump...

The resistance on the crank angle sensor was ok also Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I tried doing that and still nothing. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I don't have ecu talk at the moment, but I have a cable on the way. I have drained the filter and re-primmed it, but it doesn't even fire for a moment.

What are the main things to check when a zd30 won't start? The Nav has been getting harder to start over the last couple of months and this morning wouldn't start at all. It did fire slightly twice but that's it. I assumed it was glow plugs as it seems to have gotten worse as the days have been...

I would be interested

So if you didn't have an issue with temperature, you would increase fuel until the AFR's were 18-19?

Rumpig At what point are you pulling fuel to keep EGT's at 700. Does it actually start where the AFR's go up to 20 around 2500 rpm?
