300D frozen wont start,

Hi All, I have a 84 300D , it was out in the subzero for a week, it is in the garage now, unheated, Chicago area. I tried many times to jump it when it was out side, now it is in 40 degree's but still wont start. Could the fuel injection have sucked air in if the fuel was frozen? if so how do i go about bleeding this system thanks adam

Wont start

Is the battery dead? Or will it just not turn over. I would suggest trying to turn it over no more than 25 seconds at a time( to save your starter). Keep it floored . Eventually it should catch, as long as you have enough juice in the battery. I would also check your filters If all else fails buy Kents- Why wont my diesel start, available here at the source. I bought it and it is filled with reasons why. Good luck

300D : Change fuel, battery & filters

I would reccommend that you trickle charge a good battery and drain (or siphon) the old diesel out. There is also a good chance that BOTH fuel filters are clogged. Once you do these three things, your attempt at starting the 300D are more likely.

Good luck,
