[diesel_mercedes] Re : Hard starting 83 240D

 

After all my assumptions didn't work out. I took it to my new favorite
mechanic. Conservative. Put it back the way you found it kind of guy & he took
my advice and look for fuel in the injector lines. None. Check the timing.
Ream the glow holes. Found all the glows bad. Bad primer pump. Probably why
It'd start all day and when it got cold over night it would drain. That's most
of it. Car now starts right up. We'll see if it starts up the next day or two
after sitting. But the glows probably went bad from all the extra glowing that
had to be done and the repeated starting. Seems the problem has been solved.
He put in used glow plugs he had & a new automatic(non screw) primer pump.
Checked the timing and charged me just under 200 dollars. But again we'll see.
