sixness is on a distinguished road
Ok thanks I've ordered the controller and glow plugs + gasket kit. I'll update once they have been installed and in the meantime use the Li jump starter each morning to get mobile. Is there anything else I should do once the inlet manifold is off. There is no SRS error on the dash instrument panel.
I can't help thinking that the battery is also dodgy as it will only start the car once after being charged over night, then the next morning it still reads 12.5 volts but wont start and I have to use the jump starter. I've checked the the drain once the car sleeps it is only 30ma. The alternator has also been tested and is working OK. After checking out the reviews on the battery brand is seems lots of people think they are rubbish. When I took it back to the supplier they charged it over night tested it and said it was still good, but it doesn't seem to hold the ability to push out the CCAs
