1985 VW diesel won't start?fiddlinrick 10-22-2009, 01:44 PM I have a 1985 golf diesel that won't start. I put new glow plugs in. and a relay and still it won't start. Any suggestions to try? Franco2112 10-22-2009, 02:20 PM Changed out fuel filter? fiddlinrick 10-22-2009, 02:32 PM Yes the fuel filter was replaced as well as the glow plugs, and the glow plug relay. I did a continuous start 3 times and felt the area around the glow plugs and it did not warm up. Could it be the ignition switch? Franco2112 10-22-2009, 05:22 PM Yes, ignition switch could be the fault but first, any other electrical issues? When did the non starting issue start? fiddlinrick 11-02-2009, 01:41 AM I had a new switch put in about 4 months ago, but everything lights up on the dash. the last time the glow plug light did not come on. Now is times its self out. I pulled the first injecter line and nothing comes out. Is there a pump in the fuel tank? The injector pump has only about 30,000 miles on it. So I just don't know what to try next. Should I have someone turn the motor over while I put fuel through the injector Pump. The injector pump does not seem to be leaking fuel anywhere. I drove home. parked the car, about 1 hour later started the car and moved it out of the driveway. went out the next morning and it just wouldn't start. I have worked on it for about 2 weeks now and can't get to the problem. thank you. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
