WTK:Diesel engine cuts of when cold

Postby improvednewbie » November 11th, 2014, 7:17 am

my diesel engine was recently serviced and both fuel filters were changed .It worked great prior to this.2 weeks after the service i noticed on mornings when i start the vehicle starts powerfull but cuts off immediately as if it lacks fuel.Then once i restart it starts normal.However once i drive a short distance it stalls again but now it does restart untill the 3rd attempt.It does however turn over very powerfully.When it does restart on the 3rd attempt it will not cut off for the rest of the drive.Can it be that the fuel filters that were purchased are faulty?Or is this the early indications of a failing primer pump?

Any help from the experts will be greatly apreciated.Thank
