Hi can anyone help? My Almera TD SE (2002 model) was off the road for 8 weeks. And now it will only start with Ether spray. Once it is running it will start every time. Its just in the mornings whenit is cold. I just spent £200 on new glow plugs so it isn't them.
Hi M8,
Have you tried that diesel Redex stuff? Could be that your injectors could be partially blocked. If so, after starting give it a good old blat down the motorway that should help clear things up.
Modern diesels aren't crap on cold mornings. Even my older diesel starts well enough and I know that one glowplug isn't working at all. Btw, it cost me £22 for a set for it.
Have you checked that there is actually power to the plugs when the glowplug light is on ??
Yo! that is a very good n improtant point. Check you are getting full power going to your glow plugs. Ther could be a bad earth somewhere or just a bad connection on your glow plug lead.
