Using exhaust pressure with diesels is a no-no because the moisture frothe exhaust pullutes the fuel and stops the engine. Glows are mortolerant of moisture but at least it shows that running exhauspressure -does- introduce fuel contaminants in one form or another.--Cha-----------------------------------------------------------------------Chas's Profile: this thread:

I've never known a diesel that would need exhaust pressure - have never seenone fitted with the necessary nipple either.Most of mine are capable of sucking fuel from a tank considerably lower thanthe carburettor be that with a throttle or just a "simple" venturi.Malcolm

afraid you reaped the whirlwind sown by others! Never heard of "crap i tank rage" before, but there's a first time for everything.

Please forget it Cheers Cha
