Hey Folks
Having a wee bit of bother with the diesel on my ex60. I believe there are inline fuel gauzes somewhere in the fuel line. Anybody know where? I have changed the filter & the diesel is flowing ok, but now and again I'm loosing power. I'm digging rotten rock so she is getting quite a roasting. I'm also about to head to my swamp for a few drains and its iffy even on the mud mats so can't afford for her to misbehave. Was bad enough taking her for a swim last year, but i'd enough time to get the chains on her and hold her in place till she got dug out with a ex40 & a 210 komatsu.

Right up under the tank itself where the fuel line emerges is a little gauze jobbie that blocks. Whip it off and clean it.

They're in the banjo bolts at the injector pump as far as I can remember.
