[AC]

[Olive Drab]

bakit yung 2B ko di na kailangan ng heater maski 1 week kong di ginamit?

[sixpack]

maganda pa ang compression ng car mo.

sorry for being so ignorant abt. diesel engines but, may glowplugs din ba yung nissan frontier?

[Ibaloi]

Pinalitan ko ang glow plugs(di original, yung pang Mazda bongo diesel) ko noon pero ganun pa rin ang problema ko, hard starting, lalo na at malaming dito sa amin. Dinala ko sa talyer at sinabi sa akin about a timer or a syncronizer between the starter and the ignition, suspetsya ko nun yung starter pero yun pa rin ang pinilit niyang rason. di ko na pinagawa, so hanggang ngayon, hard starting pa rin kung minsan, pero kung minsan naman start agad kahit ang lamig lamig! I'm starting to believe that mechanic. Hmm...totoo kaya yun? B2200 pala ang sasakyan ko

[AC]

went to my mechanic.. sabi nya pa check ko daw muna sa electrician yung electrics... i duno kung ano yun... bago ko daw palit glowplugs.. dahil sayang daw kung palit ko agad... yun siguro yun... ndi ko parin napapagawa sakin eh.. hehe

[OTEP]

I think yung glowplug relay ang tinutukoy niya as the timer ek ek thing. Sa Mitsu madali lang naman macheck yung because it 'clicks'. Ang lakas ng tunog niyan kahit sarado ka sa loob ng sasakyan maririnig mo.

bryboy,

Yes, may glowplug ang Frontier.

AC,

I suggest you have your present plugs tested. Mas madali ito kaysa having the rest of your electrics tested first (parang baligtad mag-isip ang mechanic mo). Madali lang naman i-test ito. You just have to run a current through them. Kung busted ang GP then get new ones. If they still work, saka mo pa lang dapat i-check ang electrics (start with the GP relay mounted on the battery).

i used to have hard starting problems with my trooper. i asked our driver to change the battery but still the same.

good thing that one day, it didn't start anymore.

blessing in disguise.

i brought my trooper personally to sunking in 7th ave. cal., they told me that the battery is under-rated.

oh yeah! stupid me, i overlooked battery ratings over heater plugs, faulty injection and loose compressions....

after changing it to a delkor 3sm battery, i never fail to get a one click start in the morning.

To check glow plugs:

Tanggalin mo lahat ng glow plugs. Wet each one of them with oil sa tip. Then one by one i connect mo sa battery. yung end na may thread lagyan mo wire tapos dikit mo sa pole ng battery ung other end ng wire. Tapos yung body naman ng glow plug dikit mo sa other pole ng battery. Kung ok ang glow plug saglit lang uusok na agad ang oil sa tip ng glow plug. Do this to the other three para ma-check mo.

There's a less effective way to check:

Multi-tester...Check mo continuity ng glow plug.

sirs... otep and ubs73 sori po.. but novice po ako sa engines... where are the glowplugs po? which end dapat yung nasa positive/negative? wat kind of oil po? engine oil will do? btw... pag sira isa.. palit napo lahat? tnx po... btw.. engine ko po is 4d56

[afrasay]

AC::: I will answer for otep and ubs73. Usually, you can find the glow plugs on the side of your engine just beside the injection nozzles (yun may tubings papunta ng injection pump) in your case, 4D56, sa right side if you're facing the engine, there is a strip that connects the tip of the plugs (positive side) together, then may wire na pumapasok sa harness.

Sa Isuzu parts sa Caloocan ang advice nila is to change all plugs when 1 goes bad.

Oil? kahit yun oil sa kamay ng mechnico mo pede ng ipahid sa dulo (yun umiinit na nakapasok sa makina) para umusok lang.
