She's let me down again....

Been performing like a champ the last few really cold days. No issues starting even after days of being parked in minus 10 degree nights.

Today was actually warmer. 3 degrees in the morning. Leaving to meet a client and she wouldn't start.

Glow light cycled as it should. I usually wait a few seconds after the light offs and then crank her and she usually starts without complaint.

Not this morning though. Cranked until the battery was weak and still nothing. Wasn't even close to catching. So I plugged it in (block heater).

Plugged it in all day and made sure it was good and hot. Still no go. Used booster battery still no go.

I had half tank in there so I know I have fuel. For good measure poured in 20 liters spare that I have. Cranked again. Still no go.

I'm wondering...could electronics cause this? I have fuel. I have heat. What else could cause this not to start?

Sorry W124 300TD. 1987.
