hey kiwi kev, this has been written about in another post 'Just in case anyone else has this problem (and it has been discussed before here) the usual place for the tacho sender on a TD27 is on the front of the timing cover on the LHS near the alternator. The sender on the turbo motor is under...

i have just changed the fuel filter, do you think I should grease it or something?

checked the glow plugs and 2 of them were not working. replaced them and this has seemed to stopped the white smoke. Still doing the long crank thing though. When i get some money i'll get the injectors serviced. can anyone recommend a good place in brisbane to ge this done?

hey, did the same thing facing up hill this time. does that change things? or just more confusing...
