can't get a live from plug that injector 4 is plugged into, but get an earth from 1 of 2 terminals. tommorrow will have to investigate where it is fed from. the plastic box where they meet and the glow plugs are fed from is an awkward place to get to. so will replace glow plugs while i'm at it and will have less chance of needing to access it again once (eventually) it's cured
Its a needle sensor, so that is probably correct

Why do you think there should be a 12v there? It can easily be 0v instead  :-/

for this my only alternative seems to be replace injector4 or find money and send car to specialist. which will probably cost more than paid for car so i may be looking for a 3rd tractor to fill my driveway.

given you have air in fuel, that needs to be resolved. presumably you tried full bleed?

fully bled from tank to pump inlet.
last weekend i replaced sender/pump unit in tank flushed fuel lines upto filter with compresssed air and then flushed with compressedair from pump back upto filter, relaced filter housing fitted new filter and filled filter with diesel magic to clear pump and injectors.
that was basic old school stuff, but my problems seem to be too technical for me.
i think air must be coming to injectors from fuel pump itself

Stating the obvious Dean.....
Why not try swopping No4 injector from your other tractor?

The plug on the injector varied between U25TD and X25DT engines as well.

dont suppose there is anyone on ebay breaking a diesel? are these no4 injectors used on anything else?, as im fairly local to you dean if i find anything or hear of anything i`ll give you the nod, is it definately that injector then & if so how easy is it to get out, i could do with a t/converter & b/housing so i will be looking out for one being broken or complete anyway,,,,good luck :y
