  • Car won't start!

    Hi all,

    My Prado won't start when the engin is cool, or when its a few hours without running.
    Went to the mechanic they said its a fuel problem, because the glow plugs are brand new. They inspected the diesel-pump and its good but allitle offtime, so they advanced it a bit, and they cleaned the injecters and calibrate it. And the car runs great! but still no luck!!! :?
    Oh its a 2004 VX turbo diesel 5 speed manual.

    Does anyone has a suggestion or an idea that the mechanics might have mist?


    Cheers,
    Darin.

    From the little information you have provided, I will have a go at diagnosing the problem.

    Air leak somewhere. Get your mechanic to hook up your fuel system to compressed air and listen for a leak somewhere.

    Good luck.

          An easy check, you said the glow plugs are brand new. But is there power getting to them?
