Now....re glow plugs on a Mondeo TDCI 54 plate. Car won't start.....it does with Easy Start but won't start off the key. I was advised ALL FOUR glow plugs were faulty and mechanic this morning tried to remove them. Managed to get them to unscrew past the threads in the head but no further - he said carbon had formed below the threads and that the carbon was preventing the old plug being removed !!!!! I found it all a bit odd. Alternative was taking the head off!!!!! However he put it all together again and I'm back to square one....fortunately he did not charge me - nice man! I ran the car for about five miles no problem - BUT once stopped even for a few minutes it won't start off the key ?????? Anyone ???? Please it's driving me to despair - so frustrating not knowing what's wrong?
