hi all, thanks for your help. Had the injection pump diaphragm replaced, did the job the engine is back to normal, apparently they fail quite often and usually blow a hole in the older fuel tanks due to the extra pressure build up. :)

hi, I believe its 0.25mm, I have the engine service manual in pdf format if you want a copy, just let me know your email address via private messages and I will send you a copy
