GU patrol TD42T long crank time

Post by GQsh0rty »

Hey guys, the old pootrol has been taking a while to start. Doesnt matter if it is hot or cold. Have come off the highway (a few times) to refuel then it has been taking forever to start. And this afternoon it will not start :bad-words:
Anyone have any ideas??

Could be air in the supply system, slow cranking speed or the pump starting to fail.

Best to get it looked at properly.

It is funny how great they are normally. My brothers TD42 is a half a crank thing, every single time, and its 400,000kms old. Awesome machine.
hands and mums dont count!!!
