Thats a Mitsubishi S4S. There is also an S6S (six cylinder version) used in the bigger Cats and Mitsu's. Great engines. See if you feel a click at the fuel shut off solenoid at the injector pump. Check voltage there. That coil opens the valve to let fuel in the pump. The S4S should have a hand primer pump on top of the fuel filter assembly. Use a 10mm wrench to loosen the bleeder plug on there a couple of turns. Pump. Is fuel **** out?

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
