if yes, your idler up switch and vacuum is at fault or your glow plugs. vacuum and idler up step lifts your rpm pass the normal (mainit) idling when your engine is cold to prevent vibrations. glow plug preheats your combustion chamber for easy starting from a cold start.
if no, then namamatayan (no idling), its' your solenoids usually located in your injection pump. or it might be the electricals. one dead cylinder could also be the culprit.
it is not advisable to remove/disable the idler switch. doing so will delay the engine from reaching its operating temperature leading to hesistation, vibration, poor oil circulation and fuel economy. did you know that the your car airconditioning system particularly the compressor is connected to this idler up switch?
