hi all
ive got a mate with a 97 diesel courier which wont start.
it winds over but wont fire, can any one point out common problems related to the fuel system on these engines,
are they set up with a lifter pump or supplied to the injector pump with an electric pump,

look for an air leak in the fuel line. not much to go wrong with a diesel.

as suggested by nev62, try bleeding the fuel system, destructions should be in the manual..

like he said,

i ran out of feul on way home and found out the hard way
use the manual pump thingy untill the air was gone but still wouldnt start
the racv guy crack one of the injectors open a tad while i truned the key she fired up after a few gose it pushed the rest of the air out and closed it back up iv never ran out of diesel again :) the was on the 60 seires
