MGM The first thing that people do not understand is that this engine is designed to use the glow plugs for staring, that meens all the time. On an 85 degree day you should have to use the glow plugs some. Having said that the glow plugs must be good, this forum has talked about this before and I say one can not be sure about the glow plug being good for sure unless you can see it get hot so that meens take them out and test. I hope you tested them when you had the injectors out. If the engine is in good shap it should start with 4 good plugs in warm weather. If the glow plugs are all good you could have low compression, a diesel must have good compression to start. Many guys on this forum say they have a hard time starting this engine after the pump was off 460 560 656 706, if the is in good shap as yours should be I never had trouble getting them to start, you due need a good head of fuel in the tank so it will bleed ok. With all the D282 I worked with I only remember one that would start on a hot day with out using the glow plugs but it took some cranking so do not advise it. Hope this helps
