Silly question, is he running on Derv ?

:shock:  Glow plugs £140 wow  , should be no more than £35.

Send him to http://fronteraowners.co.uk/v-web/bulletin/bb/index.php

Tell him to log on and I promise it will get sorted :wink:
just tell him to post model age and engine type and any symptoms, smoke , noises ect.
