This may be a stupid question but all my mates have petrol and mine is diesel!!Here goes when cold after I use glow plugs and turn to key to start should it fire straight away or is it normal to churn abit before it fires (2.5 n/a) sorry if this abit thick but never had a diesel one more thing...

Cheers for that will try when next off work!!!!!!

that should have read "no light at all" sorry just a plank!!!!!!

Hi sorry to jump on ypur thread (don't know about bulb)but my S11a the wire etc from the glow plugs are missing so know light at all any one got a clue how to wire it up or what should be there!!!! thanks:confused:

I should but I didn't !!!My sat nav said 36mph the sign said 30mph the policemans speed gun said 36mph!!!DOH:doh:

I would stop to offer what help I could,but then you(they)would see my landie and tell me to sod off!!!:D

Decided that mine is out too send me to the looney bin!!!Stop one oil leak only to find another,stop that one only to see first leak back again!!!:eek:

I'm no bright spark and even i wouldn't have tried to drive to a garage!!Doh
