well what can i say changed the dreaded glow plugs on my 1.9jtd doblo no problems what ever all sorted
was very pleased with my self drove off up the road and the battery light flickered a couple of times then stayed off didnt think any more of it until i noticed my fuel gauge had dramaticly was dropping pulled over and what a idiot i was one of the fuel lines i had removed to change glowplugs i had not refitted and had used 4 gallons of fuel for 10 miles and most of it had washed the alternator below it
thought there was no problem had got away with it
until the following morning tryed starting it and battery flat recharged battery started van tested if alternator charging and no it wasnt
dont get it why is battery light only on with ignition goes out when started but alternator not charging
so any ideas and if alternator failed how do i change
any ideas would be much apreciated
