Andrewwynn ok here is my sin...i did what i thought was a correct amp clamp test but checking out others done online they mention disabling engine management...basically not allowing engine to fire up...i didnt do this i placed clamp around cable near battery with x5 off started it and i got 392+ amps yup but the x5 actually started so not sure the high amps could have been the fact that glow plugs could have drawn current too.
