Does your Mitsubishi L300 make a strange noise? Need wheel alignment specs?

no glowplugs for cold start-help?

Post by Blissy »

So Nelli has been not clicking after sitting for like a day. But sometimes she does, and when she's only been resting for a few hours, she always clicks and is happy. I read some threads about people haing to start without glowing, but always. I only havve to do it sometimes. You guys think it's still the same issue with th glow plug control panel behind the driver in the wall? Or could it be a tired plug or sth else. How can I fing out?
THanks for helping, this site rocks indeed
Many blessings, safe travels

I just posted this regarding a no glow situation, which was ultimately linked to bad glow plugs and a blown circuit board. I would definitely get your circuit board and plugs looked at. My situation started like yours - intermittent at first, sometimes nothing, then I changed my glow plugs for some cheap ones (big mistake) and that likely fried my board (which was probably on the verge of failing anyway). I was then having to start without glow plugs for > 2 weeks. It worked, but seemed pretty hard on the starter, especially on those cold coastal morning...
