hello to all wozzle71 here 1st day on, just wondered if any of u fellas could help with my prob.
car has never had a start up prob before but the other morning instead of starting straight away after heater plug light went out i had to pump the accelerator for 3 or 4 secs, has been the same since once running though there are no hiccups or probs noticeable.

Welcome to site Smiley

Soz, I know nothing about the BMW tractor engine, but I know glowplugs can be a possible cause of poor starting...
