    Had the same issue with my daughters a1 1.6 Diesel last week

    dpf light on, unable to clear it with a hard drive 

    Engine management light & glow plug light then came on & went into limp

    Had to have a forced regen then oil & filter change

    They are a pain in the butt

    If you've not stripped it right down, I wouldn't run it for long until you do.

    The centrifugal crankshaft oil filter just fills up with crud which sets hard over the years and, the next thing you know, a con-rod is waving hello through the crankcase.

    Thanks for advice 

    Will be pulling it down when time allows,

    Going to take a backseat for now as have other projects to complete 👍🏻

    That will be a nice bike when fully restored, but what I really like is the Marshall, complete with winch, in the first photo.   Reminds me of the one we had at home, bought not long after the end of WW2, went to the scrapper around 1962.   Ours didn't have a winch, and was used mostly for ploughing and belt work (thresher).    Father sowed a couple of field of wheat with it, but reckoned it was going to shake the grain drill to pieces.

    Another one in it’s working clothes

    Little update,

    All fluids changed, new battery, carburettor stripped & cleaned,

    Points cleaned & gapped 

    New Plugs, oil down bores & rockers

    Bottle of two stroke mix petrol 

    Now up & running 

    Considering over  30 years laid up it sounds very good 

    Have a video of running but file to big to upload

    Spoke to a gun shop about this today they had exactly the same issue returned both theirs to the supplier  (sports man gun Centre) apparently is a firing pin issue being the wrong type too long and powerfull that it knocks the brass loose or the primer out  - that's what I was told ....

    Thanks for putting this up

    Will get in touch with shop this week & see what they want to do,

    Just sent one back. Cartridges would not eject; blowing primers completely out of shell. Tried 5 different brands of 3" cartridges. I cannot see how it passed proof.

    Please let us know how you get on with yours.

    That’s bad news

    Lets hope that it was a one off

    Will keep you updated 👍🏻
