it appears to have had a modification to the wipers as the screen is for individual motors but they're obvious by thier lack of presence and a single motor fitted in the nearside parcel shelf also the centre horn button appears to be missing
tidy looking motor though and one of the better colours:5bdriving:
being a diesel it does sound like a fuel starvation problem, it could just be a failed lift pump, an air leak on one of the feed pipes from the tank to the lift pump or finally a blockage in the fuel pickup pipe...
or it could be the stop lever not moving properly and vibrated back to closed/stop position cutting off the fuel which is probably the first check
try opening the filter bleed point and see if you can manually pump fuel up before getting carried away, if needs be give the engine a short click on the starter button to rotate the cam a little and try again as sometimes it's difficult to pump fuel manually as the lobe that drives the pump sits in the wrong place blocking the ability to manually pump fuel
if no fuel pumps then it's time to look for blockages, it could just be the gauze on the pickup is blocked with crap, an airline gently blown down the fuel pipe from the pump back to the tank ensures there's nothing in the line
if neither of those sorts it i'd next be checking the pump works correctly, most likely by removing it and checking the valves and diaphragm inside it
i'm not experienced with these old 2.25 diesels but these are similar checks that need applying to any motor with this sort of problem
oh by the way did i say, that's a very nice looking motor so don't be ruining it with chequer plate, gay spokes and other assorted tat
if you want some very knowledgeable advice about this engine i'd get yourself on the Series2 forum, introduce yourself with a few pictures, then pose your engine problem in the workshop, there's every chance Crashbox will answer and he does like these diesels (i think he's had two off me, he's also a different Crashbox to the one on here)
DO NOT mess about with your injector pump as good timing on these is pretty critical for best running
