porblem is, when it gets to running heat, form 1st, 2nd then 3rd gear its got fark all power, it just doesn't wanna go, the 4th and 5th it goes like a champ. WHATS THE PROBLEM????
I have been told that it might be the injecter pump, to dirty or completly shagged, when i get it back ill run some injecter cleaner through it and check all the fuel lines and put a new filter on as well, then ill get the injecters profesionally cleaned (if needed)

the little thimble filter inside the pump fuel inlet fitting
is that the one above the fuel tank, the size of a camera film container?

No it's located at the front of the fuel pump at the engine, go for a cruise back through the posts here to a post around 2 months ago (dont know who started it), there was a couple/few of pages on this little gismo with pic's but hurry as I am soon to remove the pics from where they are housed.

There is a mesh filter on the fuel pump where the fuel line goes in on top. Undo the bolt, adn fish around in side for it (like smaller flyscreen stuff)..
they block up and stop fuel going thru
