Air filter is new from Allisport and i do have a snorkel..But i dont think thats the problem...Its never overheated and was running fine up until now..What about the fuel lift pump?? would this also do it???

only if its over pumping white smoke from a deisel if its fuel related is over fueling, If the lift pump was faulty I would expect it to me not getting enough fuel. I'm affraid I dont know the disco diesel engine that well just going off general deisel engine knoledge, is there any kind of air flow or MAS sensor in the intake?

over fuelling a diesel is black smoke & white smoke is water  :wink:
do you have a K&N filter fitted??

that might not have helped the engine much  :wink:
take the filler cap off & see if it chuffs from there,if it does headgasket has gone,

have you had the rocker cover off yet??
the 300's have a habit of pulling the back stud out that holds the rockers down so you loose power etc

rollazuki:
Had a similar prob myself, turned out had petrol in my diesel. Ok from start up, but after a minute or two, no power, revs all over.

Double check fuel quality.

Lift pump fault usually causes engine to die. Have seen a few faults in the workshop where people have run bio-diesel and its shagged the lift pump. Have you??

Check theres no minute leaks between the tank and the high pressure pump.These will drag air and cause all sorts of running/starting faults. Take off the fuel filter and remove and clean the sealing ring on all sides, thats a fave air leak point. Just check sll the pipes/unions etc.
