Didja adjust the valves recently ? .


Test the glow plugs with a $20 Harbor Freight infra red thermometer ? .


As some white bottle Diesel Kleen ? .


All these are necessary for reliable Winter starting and service .

My 240 failed to start yesterday. It was the third day of really cold, around 10 degrees. The first day I drove it and it started fine. Also the starter did that thing we were talking about a few weeks ago. Mine has not done it for years, but then I park it in winter and drive the Subaru. But now, no snow just cold so I prefer the 240 over the Subaru. Now I am running the block heater for a few hours to see if that will start it, for the last time till spring. I guess I should run the AC to circulate the stuff. Max- in winter
