Starting issue LN106

Post by brevin »

G'day,
Have a ln106 hilux that's struggling to start on these cold mornings. Thought the old battery was poked so I bought a new one and things ran fine for about 3 weeks until back to its old ways. It'll go to turn over, try and start, and won't make it. Sometimes it'll fire up after 3 or so attempts, otherwise a set of jumper leads will get it going. When attaching the new battery, it would spark as if something was running, but nothing is. Now I'm no good with these coloured worm like things people call wires, but if anyone could point me where to start for a bloke with half a brain and a set of multimeters it'd be much appreciated.

Alternatively an auto sparky who wont charge like a wounded bull... I'm new to the area... located east Auckland.

Most likely your glow plugs, a bloke with half a brain could sort this :D
