OK so I finally got an proper owners manual for my Land Rover thats in english and realized that my ignition switch is not the correct type at all. My rover has a 3 position switch which is preventing the glow plugs from heating up correctly. I suspect this is a big reason why I have to jump my rover and crank it for an extened period before it finally starts.
Anyway I think I sourced the correct replacement as being http://www.roversnorth.com/store/p-1...ch-diesel.aspx
I could go the more expensive genuine part way but thats not really a big concern for me.
Also, has anyone ever sourced replacement glow plugs from US shops like Advance Auto Parts or so on? I'd like to replace my glow plugs, especially to the newer types if possible that heat up faster. I've seen some of those kits to do this, but they are kind of rediculous price wise and then you have to get them shipped from the UK.
