Answers?
I have a couple of ideas but first need to understand a few answers to some of the earlier questions before trying to prescribe a solution to the core problem.
Did you locate the electrical cord and male plug for the engine block heater?
If yes, did you plug it in to a live electrical circuit for at least 5 hours or more before you tried to crank with the ignition key?
Third, did you use the manual fuel primer pump until your were confident the lines are presurized?
Finally, using the ignition key, did you cycle the glow plugs several times and then spin the engine continuously for a good long time (perhaps as much as up to two minutes)...or did you stop before 60 seconds?
