00 2.5 Non Start - Phil68
Hi All, I have had starting problems with my Voyager (2.5 VM engine). 3 days ago I replaced the glow plugs, started instantly. 24 hours later wouldn't start and flattened the battery.

Cracked injectors, lots of fuel. Jumped from other car span over and over for ages, plumes of smoke from exhaust, Unburnt diesel I guess, then for no reason eventually fired up.

If used within a few hours, will start OK, leave it for 4-6 hours, same again NON START.

No flashing lights on Dash, removed plug from exciter ring, alarm light flashes on, plug ring back in, alarm light off when key in - transponder side of things seems OK.

Am I looking too hard into this, and could I still have the original glow plug problem (Wrong set Fitted?)

Any Ideas please hep

Regards
Phil

Glow plug relay could well be the problem also could be struggling to hold fuel pressure in the rail due to a bad injector.
