2002 Ford Galaxy poor starting

Car: Ford Galaxy
Year: 2002

Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
If i park my Galaxy on an incline (nose up) for several hours - it is very difficult to start when i return. Have to crank it for ages. Seems like fuel starvation ??

have your glow plugs tested as there may be 1 or 2 that are not working and may need replacing if these are at fault then replace all 4 not just the ones that are not working if this is the problem of course also have your diesel filter replaced as this will help if it hasnt been replaced for a long time
