hi i've managed to "hotwire" the heater by finding a spare fuse and running a cable straight to the heater motor now all heater and air con works fine with the burnt out wire still cut lovely to have heat again but the starting problem still persists i did check both sides of the scuttle and the drivers side one was blocked with leaves so the main wiring connector was sat in about 2 inches of water i have taken it apart and checked and cleaned it all seems fine no burnt looking bits but she still decides not to start sometimes, i thought maybe it was the stop solenoid so i slackened off the diesel feed to the rail and turned her over and only a small amount of diesel pushed out could this be my problem? if so how do i remove the solenoid as its not the one described in the manual i tried taking out the bit that the wires go into (small casing with a pin that goes into the pump) and turned it over but didnt get any diesel to pump out so im not really sure if this actually is the solenoid or not or if my problem is still with the wiring and not the solenoid as most of the fuel pump connections are electrical not mechanical ( no throttle cables to the pump directally only wires from the throttle assembly to the pump) any ideas on what to check next and how to do it would be very much appreciated
