hi guys,
ive got a 92 tempra 1.9td sw and its refusing to start.
it all started (no pun intended) last week when the battery appeared to die, so i replaced it with the halfrauds recommended item along with some new glow plugs. this worked fine for a few days.
it started becomming harder to start (turning over but no pick up and lots of smoke) and eventually the orange glowplug light stopped comming on.
checked the aux fuses and the 20amp had gone, replaced with no joy. also now replaced what i think is called the cold start relay under the bonnet (black box passenger side near the battery?) and the glowplug light is back however it is still not starting although is turning over and is very smokey.
any bright ideas guys, i am seriously losing my patience with this car now.
neil
