Cheers for the responses! Eventually managed to get a good photo through the fuel sender hole, which shows no valve or mesh on the outlet pipe - I've attached a photo in case this helps anyone in future.

Hi all, Hoping someone might be able to help here... My 1.9TD Samurai (original XUD9) has been having fuelling issues when under load (dying completely when going uphill and causing enough vacuum in the fuel line to suck the filters priming bulb in), almost certainly caused by rust and diesel bug in...

Here goes... Little bit of history - Sammy is a 1999 1.9TD (XUD9) Samurai out...

Cheers! I'll have a look for the Upol stuff then!

Seems to be a problem on most of them over here! My SJ is the same age and doesn't have a spec of rust on it, but then that's spent it's life in sunny Spain

Any recommendations on what filler to use?

So, I've recently taken up welding... It was either that or pay someone to do it for me, so I went out and bought a mig welder and set to work on the Vit.
