d21 td27t wouldnt start, replaced starter motor with a brand new bosch and ran fine for last 2-3 days.
today however wouldnt start and got a bump start to get it running.
got home and checked 13.5V on battery while running and 12.5v off.
tried starting after checks and dark grey smoke from starter region.
now i have no glow plug light on the dash, but relay is still clicking and no movement from starter. battery and oil light is DIM very hard to see.
i have experienced the dim battery and oil light before and had to replace a fuse link by the battery. i have checked these and they are all fine.
anyone able to give some advice, prefferebly before i bang my head too hard against this innocent wall.
much thanks
