A DIY install is good so long as you understand what has been done and why but for someone who does not carryout their own repairs and relies upon a repair shop to do maintenance it can end up costing more to repair than usual trying to work out what someone else was thinking when it was installed. Everyday drivers that don`t want to be laying under there vehicle `tinkering` = stock system. For the enthusiastic DIY deli owners = go crazy with the installs !!!!
I have seen many different variations on glow plug modifications and I still maintain that fixing the original system gives the best results. Any L300 will start up to -10 degrees without a block heater. Any colder than that it needs a block heater but still starts no problem.
ECU -$150 Glow plugs $36each (Mitsubishi) and a new temperature sender (Mitsubishi) $58. Total of $350 and the stock system is rebuilt and working like new.
$36 for glowplugs that are original OEM??? I haven't even seen crap aftermarket ones that cheap!

Genuine mitsubishi glow plugs are available from any Mitsubishi Dealer here in canada and are about $38 each. Just for the record the shop where the `problem` van is has never spoken with us as we would have helped them diagnose the problem and would have shipped the parts by now. We have shipped a lot of parts across canada and helped out many shops that are unfamiliar with these vans. We have everything in stock and can ship same day with any parts for an L300, no reason for your van to have been there for a month ?? Thats very excessive for a simple problem.
