gerry t Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 car will take four or five turns followed by a puff of smoke,has only done 37k miles so could it be the glow plugs ? Quote
Johndouglas Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 It could be. How about when it's warmed up? It could also be a leak of air to the fuel line. In the morning, before the first start of the day, open the bonnet and give the hand primer a few squeezes until it becomes firm. Then try a start. If it goes, you've got a leakage of air going into the fuel line. ................................. If that doesn't work, wait for the glowplug light to go out - switch off and wait for the glowplugs again. If that works, you have probably got a duff plug. Quote
