No start '89 1.6
« on: December 15, 2006, 06:11:28 pm »
So I changed out my glow plugs the other day, things ran fine for several days... Today the car started and ran fine all morning while I was running errands... So I started it 6 or 7 times, all with no problems... I park it in the driveway this afternoon, go to start it this evening, and no go...

Engine turns over fine, injection pump is getting fuel, puffs of white coming out the tail pipe that smell diesely, so I think the injectors are getting fuel... I haven't tested the GP's yet (it's dark), but it's warm out, so I ought to get something even without them...

I'm stymied... As far as I know, if the engine is turning and fuel is going in the engine ought to start, as long as it ain't too cold... What could my problem be???
