    Gimp had my work sxs go in for its service, end off the week it come back on the frieght truck $150. Any how i usually have a quick look over to see whats been done any new bushes etc etc. Thought thats strange they havn't replaced the oil filter, check oil hmm old oil. Ring them up, yep no problems just new oils and a grease. I said new filter , yep new filter on the job sheet . I had to explain to them i didn't even think they had in there work shop, sure enough had to take it back in to town for it to be serviced.
    Now if i hadn't off checked we would have been send a account for a service that hadn't even been done

    When it died did it just stop or cough and splatter then die?
    No signs of diesel bug in tank or on filter? Maybe check intank filter/screen

    Try sticking the fuel pick up line (feed line for filter/primer) into a diesel container, to bypass the tank. Pump the primer up hard and try, might need bleeding or try some start ya bastard to get it under way.
    Tank screen might be blocked or tank breather might be blocked..?
    Or as mentioned a leaky line
