You must wait for the glow lamp to go out before cranking. Possibly not the hot fix, check for air in the clear pipe from filter to injection pump and for function of lift pump.The hot fix relay was working ok that I fitted 3 weeks ago until yesterday glow plug light came on as usual but just kept cranking until I had to get green flag to help me out wonder if it's got anything to do with the hot weather
I always wait for the light to go out before starting there is air in the fuel line what could cause this fuel filter seal maybe
Even considering the temperature up north I would expect a diesel to start not needing glows this time of year.
Do you keep it in a fridge overnight?
When were injectors last serviced.
Still getting problems it starts fine from cold and after driving for a little while it will start again no problem but when warm it will not start the hot fix relay must be doing it's job as the glow plug light comes on cold or hot the only way I can get it to start is to poor water over the injector pump
This thread sounds familiar Wammers.
Thanks just checked the lift pump by connecting a wire from the battery to relay 12 and pin 5 which I think is the bottom one nearest to the ecu and nothing happened so looks like I need a lift pump then or cam they be fixedYup sure does.
