    Smoke is white.
    Tried that many times. 8 out of 10 times no different.
    Might look at some new glow plugs.
    cheers

    For the cost of new Glow Plugs, its not a bad idea to replace them, the SuperCheap Parts Guide will give you an idea how much to expect.

    Before buying new plugs, do you have a good battery system. A lot of time if power is down they won't heat properly. I also doubted as you are doubting me now. I was having exact same trouble. New battery, no problem since. And Pete welcome.
