Hi all. I have a problem with my pajero. When the car is parked nose up it will not re start. The fuel is clearly running back to the tank. The car has now been sat for 6 months and I want it back on the road. Will this be the fuel pump seal? Do I put in a one way valve? Where do I fit the one way valve? The car will not start with easy start? Can anyone help me?????

Thanks for the info. That was a interesting read. I have fitted the one way valve and it seems to have solved the problem. I also fitted a new duel filter at the same time. I'm suspecting the diafram in the primer pump is also shot and could be the cause of the air leak. Thanks again for the info.
