Hi all,i just want,to say a massive thank you to the guys who,ve been giving loads of excellent advice over the last few days thank you,oh and just a quick update,i recieved my new fuses this morning,i began to do the tests u was advised to do,it never rains hey,dont buy cheap glow plugs is the...
Cheers peg will do,yeh smokes quite badly,even when it worked for a couple of days it smoked but didnt blow,theres 3 fuses in this box attached to positive on battery 80 amp abs 80 amp alternator and 30 amp its got comp on box lid i presume compressor?? The abs fuse as also got something else...
Yes fuse pops straight away,or smokes first but then pops on next turn of key,ive not tried it myself since the mechanic straightened out the no3 cable because i ran out of fuses.
Im sorry ruston,im a thicko bear with me so i take all the plugs out attach 1 at a time to harness and test,thicko bit do i test with multi meter,black cable on negative red in plug,please say yes my head hurts lol,now what do you mean by test circuit do you mean the loom itself without plugs...
Hey guys,ive just found a glow plug loom a guys selling 30 english pounds,do think its worth the risk and get it ir better to do my tests first when my fuses come.
Lmao quality that peg dont tempt me,ive got more 80 amp fuses due tomorrow,so cant play till then,could a dodgy glow plug cause that much ampage to blow an 80 amp fuse,its crazy to me ya could run a house on a fuse like that then all that it takes is one turn of a little key and bang please...
No tested them connected,i replaced all 5 from europarts,was told just make sure they were 11.5 v which they were cant remember the make though,should i test unconnected aswell then and what sort of reading should i look for.

Yes it is the merc engine,a few have laughed when ive said that and said have fun they fault for fun,i can see this being a bigger job than first thought.
Hi shaun1,thanks for reply,the guy did bench test all plugs and they were all good,he replaced no3,because when he tested it it blew the fuse on his tester,id replaced the plug myself a week earlierxwhen my problems originally started,and i must of twisted the cable,but what sounds funny to me...
