Hi I just got my first trooper and all was going good for 2 days. Was driving home last night and the it started to loose power now and again but then it would not rev over 2000rpm and would not drive. It has quarter a tank of fuel. Any help to resolve this issue would be great thank Dean

I put fresh fuel in it yesterday and it cleared for 5 mins and it was fine. But back to the same again so I have ordered fuel filters for it. Blue smoke and peddle is flat and only sits at 2000rpm

Can you run it from a separate fuel supply?

Was just thinking where is the fuel pump located? I was going to get a fuel can and run it from that but if it has a pump it won't work so I can't test it like that *beep*

They don't have a fuel pump, run the new supply to where the pipe joins the engine from the filter

Where did the water come from? You might have the start of sleeve seals going. Does it smell of diesel in the radiator?

it may just be coolant from the previously failed seals. diesel floats on water so if you drain the tank any water should come out first.
