engine starting problem
Alright guys I'm at a loss right now. So I swapped in an om617 into my 2wd yota. At first it wasn't turning over very fast so I figured that was the problem. Got it to turn over fast enough to where it should start. It kicks over like it wants too start and that's it. Checked the timing and it should be good at least on the camshaft. Haven't done a drip test yet. Little to no play in the timing chain. It's getting fuel no air in the fuel lines. Glow plugs are working. Any ideas on what it could be
white smoke means combustion temperature is too low , weather it is cause some valve is open, pump offset or too advanced or retarded, or engine leaks water, lack of compression , well u know!!!
start by cheking injection time, glow plugs , dada them move along the way til compression test...
90 % is glow plugs, pump too much out of time 5% ... the others 5%
good luck
How are your glow plugs wires/controlled?
In my Jeep, I had to put the solenoid I used for the glow plugs on the block where the cruise actuator was in order to get a good enough ground. Chased my tail for weeks cause I thought fender mount was OK.
