Nah, its a great little car. Cheap as chips to run and a hoot to drive in its own way. Im hoping to keep it until I retire (hopefully) at 70.

Who knows. Fuel system looks very basic. No schraeder valve. Pipe comes from the tank to a white plastic block (some kind of valve ?) and then to the fuel rail. If number one pot is the timing chain end (not sure) then number three is the first one supplied at the fuel rail.
You could find out! Unhook the return pipe, drain 100ml of fuel into a clear glass jar and inspect it for dirt, water or diesel. Do that a couple of times before you make any irrecoverable decisions.
