Well after replacing all the glowplugs and checking the glow relay and replacing
it it (it did have a burned contact surface) turned out the hard starting was
just a case of needing a diesel purge. The German stuff. One treatment. Now
she starts with out any pedal right away and idles nicely. Sheesh. How to do
diesel purge. Bring up the inlet to the motor and the return. Put the diesel
purge in a class bottle so you can see the inlet tube in the bottom of the
liquid. Run car till all is used. About 15 minutes. Don't let any air in the
lines. I cap off the line from the tank. Replace and run after to make sure no
bubbles are in the system. Enjoy better performance & starting.Lawrence
