thanks :) ordering some now

ok checked glow plugs and four faulty,took them all out and double checked them using a battery and at first 2 worked then 1 more died!i take it that with just 2 glow plugs working it wont start?

ok checked out the glow plugs tonight and they get a constant 10.5 v even after the dash light goes out,is this normal?

yes you did save me buying a pump,many thanks for that :) and got air out of pipe. will check continuity on glow plugs next, thanks again guys darren
