Could do with a bit of help!
When I got it, I started it with a flame in the inlet manifold to drive it into my workshop.After a new radiator, water pump and glow plugs it still wont start up without the flame. Even then its hit n miss if it'll fire!
Glowplugs are parallel type which are wired up with out the original ballast resistor in and work perfectly. Freshly charged battery for good cranking speed and injectors have been bled.
Its always been a bad starter but when running, runs sweet from tick over to full throttle so im ruling timing out??.
Before I start stripping the engine down I thought id ask you guys what you think. Common problems related? First things to check?
cheers in advance, Chris
