Except for being delivered with a dead battery from storage for 4 1/2 years, this is the first time for the 1983 Benz diesel did not to start this morning. The glow plug light didn't light. It actually seems to want to start when running the starter; seems to fire on 1 cylinder, almost like one glow plug worked.
So, gonna plug the block heater in and hope to start it. Got an appointment at the dealer on Monday morning. Hopefully, the block heater will allow it to start without being towed.
Shows maybe another reason for having the block heater.
