I dont know if its the same as my bluewave diesel but mine has a kubota d902 engine and i believe the prochem diesel uses the same kubota engine so may be a common engine in truckmounts.

Tks for all offered help,

 It was a d1105  as told by a member who called me, however upon  taking a look at machine by the guy who services it  it was more than just filters :'(

 He stripped engine and cracked  cylinder head , ouch .

  Well after spending a day trying to source a recon i went for new head, priced at my local kubota dealer £700 plus vat , of couse it doesnt stop there , whilst  machine out might as well give it  a good overall , in the end i ordered a new head from a marine parts stockist price £390 plus  , even air filter a tenner cheaper  :) so all in all a decent saving, some times it pays to shop around !(when you know the iten your buying is identical )
