Howya lads. Last couple of cold mornings van refuses to start. Eventually it turns over and exhaust shoots a plume of smoke. Starts all day then no problems. If I leave for work in afternoon she's fine. She has 270k km clocked up now. Where exactly is the relay please? Was told near battery but can't find it or what it even looks like? 08 t220 75 1.8l Ireland. Thanks

Don't know about the relay but is it consuming any oil? My bike has the same symptoms but it's lost some cylinder pressure.

Does the glow plug indicator light up? With the ignition and stay on for a few seconds?
