Mend DAF LF 45 130 Diesel Engine Starting Problem

My DAF lf 45 won't start?

I have bought my first lorry, drove fine first thing then parked up for a few days now it won't start it's a DAF 45 130 with a Perkins engine I think 4 cylinder . Engine does checks then I crank it and it just turns over plenty of diesel in tank what could be the problem. ..?

Daf LF is a paccar engine built by cummins.Sounds like you have excessive leak off from injectors/or fuel pump not pressuring rail.Quick check on the pump remove plug from m-prop valve located underneath pump,by doing this it will allow full pressure.If it starts your m-prop vavle is faulty,if not tighten the injector stand pipes and retry to start.If it starts it's down to them causing to much leak off.[Daf can check leak off for you].If still not starting remove pump theres a small drive keyway which breaks causing the pump not to pressure the rail
