hi folks. hope you can pin point the source of my problem ? My car ( 1.9jtd Marea '01 ) is not starting each time. The coil light sometimes doesnt come on when the key is turned yet the car starts fine first time. Other times it does come on and starts just the same.
Recently its not being starting - just turning over - until about the third attempt on the key ( i dont let it turn over for long to protect the starter ) - when the coil light does comes on and it does start.
I'm thinking this might be to do with the pre heat system, rather than the glo plugs. what does anyone else think ? and where are the particular relays and pre heat "unit " located? Is there a way to test these components? cheers for any help. thanks.
PS - is there still no manuals available for these engines?
