Hi
I have a ford mondeo 1.8TD S reg The wire which connects to the glow pugs is getting really hot and has melted a little of the sleving at the end of the wire.

I'd think one of the plugs is possibly faulty, you need them checking by someone competent.

hi
just to let you konw, i have fixed the problem and it was the main wire leading to the glow plugs. I replaced the connector and it starts first time every time and the wire is not hot anymore. Such a simple thing as a bad connection. thanks dave
