my GQ had a leak in the lift pump around the shaft so i replaced the whole thing with a CAV unit.
funny thing is mine only sucked air in and never leaked diesel out....was a bugger to find what was wrong.
Thanks SHane. That is the next thing. My little bro just got back from NZ, he's a mechanic, and he did say something similar. So I drained it, to make sure there was no water, then pumped it up. Started, but not striaght away. We'll get into it today adn see what happens.
