I was just helping a mate fit a dual battery set up to a D4D prado when we touched the positive battery terminal on the fuel filter - earthed.
The motor will now turn over but not start... Is there a reset or fuse to replace. I have
check all the fuses I can find with out luck.
Does anyone have experience with this sort of thing?

Thanks for the input guys.. we found it!
Someone (not me) shorted the spanner out on the fuel filter and put a pin hole in it about 10mm from the top of the filter.
for some reason we couldn't see any diesel but after priming the pump a ni9ce stream of diesel shot out. The engine was sucking air..... put your finger over it and she started..
how embarrassing.. could have been worse, could have been petrol!!!!
