WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries,can and do kill people and damage property
Ok jus got around to doing the hot start fix found it was really easy took around 20min to do and that was with taking pics so should take around 10min have uploaded some pics of the job this is how i did it
1) remove the battery opens area up and allows easy acess to plate
2) undo the 2 bolts holding the plate and remove plate and o ring
3) install new o-ring and plate tighten up the bolts
4) Re install battery start the car check for leaks
easy as that

You can get the required parts from "nizbits" a vendor on this forum.

Hey guys, thanks for the info. I'm going to get in touch with Nizbits, but wanted to get a heads up on what the plate an 'O' ring actually do? My 2.8 cranks over for ages, initially on cold then both hot and cold. Once it's running, there's no problems at all so I don't think it's a fuel supply issue. It's got me completely stumped
Any suggestions would be fantastic.
Thanks in advance, Mark
Sounds like you need to replace the glow plugs AND the advance plate, go genuine glow plugs tho.
The plate and 0 ring replaces the existing plate, it has a raised section which advances the pump.
Cheers, the ferret.

Hey guys, after all that, it was the timing in the pump that was out and had nothing to do with the crank angle after all. It turns out that a $40 timing advancer for the fuel pump from Nizbits was all it took. It's starting better than it EVER has. There are a couple of good threads on here about the fuel pump advancer and how it's fitted. Thanks everyone for the input and feedback.
Garry from Nizbits was really helpful. The pump error was a factory issue and supposedly issued by Bosch a few years ago. He sent the part and info sheet which I've kept with my vehicle manual. Excellent result all round.
