Cold Start Light Questions
jimthelandyman:
Could be the diesel thats gone waxy from the freezing temperatures, especially if its been stood a while, don't think the 2.25 diesels like starting in the cold at all.
Neil Jones:
You could try using a hair dryer set to hot to blow air into the air inlet to get warm air in.
hobbit:
A last resort is an item called Bradex cold start, squirt directly into the inlet, not through the filter
It will force it to start, but not recommended to be used on an regular basis, definately a last resort
If you can I would suggest a tow start if possible
landroverkeith:
