Cool, thanks Beagle, should have thought of this myself. Lift pump seems fine. Good flow at idle going back to tank.

I will now empty the tank and check the screen.

Diesel 911, thanks for the link to the lift pump kits, I search forever and couldn't find it. Has been bookmarked for the future.

Don’t worry about the bubble its best to mount the filter horizontally.
