Could be I’m not sure. I have seen couple of people have issues seemed like plugs but they’d put new ones in all working, replaced fuel heater part fixed it.
misread the post ^^^ I did - says fuel temp 91

Don't go gung-ho tightening the new fuel filter as the housing cracks easily.
Intermittent is a PITA. Could be a wire or connector somewhere. Or #4 / CPS on its way out. Time will tell.

Isn't there a temp sensor in the FIP? If replacing the fuel heater part of the fuel filter I would assume there was a problem with either a cracked housing or a bad seal allowing air to get into the system.

I tend to agree after looking at the photos posted it even shows an intermittent fault. I would be having a look at the round connector for the wiring from the FIP. I have seen a fuel temp sensor that's in the pump mentioned so unless that gone faulty then it's down to a bad connection or a wiring fault or #4 inj.Time to get the inlet manifold off and check the wiring loom.
I've never really been sure that fuel temperature affects much. I guess it must otherwise why collect the data.

The fuel heater is standard and runs winter and summer up to a predetermined temperature.

Lots of cheap Ebay glow plugs are NBG.

Yup, but it's purpose is to stop the diesel waxing and blocking the filter in sub zero temperature's.

It does mate if the fuel is hot and the ECU thinks it's cold then it won't adjust the fuel quantity servo Quote from the late Wammers, June 12 2013. Search FIP fuel temp sensor. @tyke100 .

No idea how it fixed their issue mate. They never came back as far as I know.
Are they any good?

They are totally sh*te. Changed mine to NGK's. The difference is 10 foldThink No Bloody Good=NBG.

Right. Thanks for all the advice.
We taken the inlet manifold back off. Unplug the renewed green sensor ( pic below )
Taken al glowpulgs out, bench checked them, and they all seem to be good.
No diesel leaks.
A.mate did one of them dye checks for vacuum leak I believe. Negative, no leaks.
Checked the fib as much as we could. seems no issue. Nanocom dosnt give any indication whatsoever for it.
( unless.i can leave the nanocom on and start the car for idle and rev reading. - not done this before )
Opened the joints and diesel flows with pressure.
Still has issues by starting.
One thing i noted, we had it running for 1 hour, turned ot off, started it again and it taken hall of a long time with the result of a smoke cloud when it actually fired.
But no ruff running or idling.
Checked with nanocom again and had again temp sensor fault.
The only thing we didn't do was the other sensor which I believe is the ecu signal one.
I dont have one to exchange yet.
So trying to order one, but bearmarch seems.only supplying this green on ( pictures) which already is new.
I have found a supplier in loverpool but he need / want the part number which which need to find again.
( think it was posted somewhere here. ).

In engine ECU live data, must have the engine running. I can't tell you more as I don't have a Nanocom.

I seam to remember Wammers saying dont start the car with nanocom connected, so i would assume you start motor then connect, i do stand to be corrected if wrong
