I would think so Robbo, it went up to 7's at the first few cranks then down to 1's and then up to 4's so possibly dumping the pressure as it fired the injectors.

Would not stay constant so when I saw the 'correct spanner' marks on the main body flats flats it got whipped it out .

Waiting on the owner to get over having a 'porterhouse blue' at Isuzu's price for one . Laughing

For the first time in five hundred years, the master of Porterhouse fails to name his successor on his deathbed before dying. He succumbs to a Porterhouse Blue - a stroke brought about by overindulgence in the college's legendary cuisine.
In 1987, Porterhouse Blue was adapted for television by Malcolm Bradbury for Channel 4 in four episodes. It starred David Jason as Skullion, Ian Richardson as Sir Godber Evans.

I loved Gribble's pic of the innards of the ROPCV! It persuaded me to strip down that from the Fire-Service Trooper.

It's NOT a perfectly-sharp picture but, interestingly, it shows a little tubular extension on the end of the bit in Gribble's pic - meaning that it was snapped-off in Gribble's ROPCV.

I failed to strip-down that part [bottom-right in the photo] which houses the 'piston' which Gribble's earlier pics show being pushed in by the WD-40 straw. The bottom-end [with the 4 visible holes] should screw-off and, presumably, release the piston and its spring - but I could not shift it and dared not be too violent!

I hope this may spur on Robbo and/or others to try to FIX their jammed units........? It should be worth a try - at these fantastic prices!
