Evening all,
Firstly apologies if this has been covered, I couldn't find it though.
Bit of a strange, and very annoying problem. My XUD basically won't start when warm, unless you bump start her, then she starts straight away. Starts ok when cold. So I changed the glow plugs, still the same. Glow plug light comes on, but tbh I haven't had a chance to check whether theres actually power going to them.
Not sure where to go now. Either the control relay, or possibly a temperature sensor? Looking advice on what to try next just? It's a Bosch pump, was running veg for years, has been on diesel the last 2 months, and that was when it started to get hard to start. Cold start cable is disconnected as well.
On a side note, did anyone know there are different sizes of glow plugs? Bought a set, went to put them in and they were too big, yet they were the same size as in my last engine. Then when I get to the awkward one behind the pump, its a big one!
Any suggestions very much appreciated!
