560 started (update)

Posted by Sam Comstock on September 27, 2000 at 15:44:50 from (129.82.219.1):

A couple of weeks ago I asked about starting a
560 that has been sitting for a long time. I got
several helpful comments - thanks!

We finally towed it around the yard, and after a
full circle of the shop it popped once, then
nearly another full circle before the next pop,
and then they came quicker, and pretty soon it was
running. (a great feeling!)

Restarting cold wasn't going well until I messed
with the glow plug connections, and now it starts
right up. It sounds like it has a knock
which seems to go away when it gets pretty warm. The
knock may just be in my head - I'm used to the
purr of a Super C, so this diesel sounds loud
regardless.

Time to tackle a power steering leak and the altenator. Thanks again.
