And my fuel gauge isnt working, yes got loads of fuel in there as i put 25ltr in yesterday, could i be the gauge it does move about 3-4mm or is it the sender and is that part of the pump ?

Just done that, how long do you turn it over for ?
My battery is going flat so have put it on charge, so will try again in the morning.
Does it need bleeding more than once ?

untill it starts!

it should fire straight away if bled through correctly
 
Changed filter and filter housing with a second hand one could this be the prob, think it was off a disco ?

did you fill the filter bowl up before screwing it on?
you need to keep repeating the perge cycle untill you get no gergling sounds at all (1st time i did mine did'nt fill filter took about 8 or 9 perge cycles to clear :doh:) probably be 2 or 3 times if filled at least ;)

No i didnt fill the bowl :doh::doh::doh:
 
if you got it from a dealer, take it back and tell them to sort it out? Im guessing you havent had it long?
 
The electrics prob was an earthing prob, seat box wasnt earthed properly.
As for not starting and priming... er well that might have been the fact that i got the fuel pipes the wrong way round on the fuel filter housing on engine side of housing, you would think that left pipe go's on the left and right pipe on right but nooo.:confused: Live and learn:rolleyes:
Thanks for all the advice guys
