1991 mitsubishi pajero, 2.5 intercooler diesel starting problems

defeating numerous mechanics that have looked at it,

You need to be a little more specific about what is happening. Will it not start, not go when put in gear, start then die, or what? Did this just start when the weather got cold or did it do this when it was warm out? Are you using fuel from a large volume station or buying from a corner store that just happens to have a diesel pump? Reply to this and tell us everything that you have told your mechanics. It is hard to diagnose with no information.

it eventually starts after about 7 attempts and runs fine afterwards,

its been doing it for a while not just in the cold weather, my dad is a mechanical engineer and he cant figure it out and 3 of m friends are mechanics and they are cluless aswell, and hes taken it to 2 different garages and they have said that the cant find anything wrong with it,

it had a water pump replaced quite recently due to a leak.

the fuel is from a big fuel station not one of the back street typ garages,

im not incredibly up on mechanics so im not sure wether ive given yo all the info you require,

ill ask my mum for any other info that you might need,

any ideas
