Hi there
Hoping someone can help with this. I bought my scudo van 3 months ago and it's always started on the button. Last week it suddenly became very reluctant to start from cold, would need multiple (10 plus) attempts and lots of cranking before sputtering into life. It starts fine from warm and appears to run fine.
The glow plug light goes on and off as it used to. The engine almost seems to catch but then instantly stalls while I am cranking it? Loads of white smoke out the back.
I have looked at other threads and thought it might be the timing advance solenoid? But then it runs fine when it's going - if this was faulty would it be running rough all the time?
If anyone has any thought please let me know!
Cheers,Richard
