Excellent.
Get yourself down to a scrappy and get a priming bulb froa Peugeot.
Then find a non return valve for the fuel line.
Fit the nrv and primer bulb between the filter and the injection pump and you'll be able prime the system by hand if it happens again.

Good tip thanks TAD. I have had them primer bulbs perish and cause more problems mind!
