fellow tsikoteers.My hilander has this issue everytime pag cold start. u have to press the gas pedal para magtuloy ang start, if not mamamatay engine. pag nagstart na sya ng mga 2mins ok na dahil i can run sa slex ng mga 120km/hr wd no problem . i already did several troubleshooting:

idle is at 750-800rpm - so its not too low
injection pump was overhauled at betan calibration just last month
fuel filter was recently changed

i was reading through several posts and it seems that 4ja1 have no glowplugs, yun lang naiisip ko cause ng hirap pag cold start. pero may nabasa rin ako na may isang glow plug daw sa may injection pump yung ibang direct injection engines na walang standard glow plugs.

id appreciate some inputs from fellow tsikoteers and isuzu peeps.
