once engine is hot its fine,&will start easy..
but cold its a pig, has new crank sensor,new fuel pressure sensor,
new fuel filter. new battery.cleaned engine to body earth. i have also replaced the low pressure small pipes at the injectors.
i find useing the manual pump i can see a large amount of air leaving the fuel filter back to the tank..can any one tell me where to buy the oil pipe snap on fittings, as i suspect they may be allowing air in to the pipe work over night..could someone please help.

Vacuum leaks are a guessing game unless you own a "MityVac" tester,
they're around £30-50,
and absolutely the right tool for the job.
With it you can blank off the fuel inlets/outlets and vac test the filter housing for example.
Or testing the pipe clamps.
Don't guess,
TEST.
