CEL still on for glow plugs not sure if anything else.

no smoke when foot on floor.  usually it rolls coal and makes POWER but it was like something wasnt fueling right, or no boost to call for fuel.  It was fine after sitting in the lot for a hair cut and drove home 100% power

Mine wouldn't start today. Needed just a lil boost. I think the terminals need cleaning.

the only way to make enough profit on a flip is if it needs work, and I don't have time or space to do work.
