Diesel toyota 2c help

**nb_nismo** · August 1st, 2006 03:48 PM

Hey guys. I've had this converted toyota lite ace that uses the 2c engine. I've been having trouble with startups in the morning and after leaving it for more than 2 hours. It's already burning oil and the fuses keep burning (i have no i idea which part of the wiring has a short since the fuse box has no labels. I've had the glow plugs changed twice already and keeping it running is driving me crazy. can anybody refer me to someone or someplace that has experience with this type of engine/model. TIA.

Check your wiring on the starter, if you can have your electrician connect a 12v relay

thanks for the suggestions. i'll recheck the starter. (although it seems to be fine. it turns the engine with no problem. it just doesn't seem to want to catch.) right now i'm worried it might be the injection pump. the 2c that i have doesn't seem to have a computer box.

i don't really have much experience with diesel engines. could anybody refer me to a place that has a good reputation in dealing with these types of problems?

my neighbor used to have the same symptoms with his tamaraw FX... dunno if its true, it was solved by having the valve clearance adjusted.... picha picha lang daw...
