Brian the car is getting fuel during cranking, how much I dont know but it puffs away. I checked the glow plugs with the autodata cd it said to use diffent ones to the ones ford gave me. So i tried the earlier longer type 20mm instead of 17mm. They stay on for 8 secs draw 60 amps and it still doesnt start very well but the cranking time has reduced by half. It must be a compression problem, but when the customer picked it up he told us it had a second hand cam fitted earlier this year. I wonder???
