The lines are pretty old and warn. It was a very hard start though. From moment one. Plenty of white smoke if I remember right. It has been sitting at the service center since early August as I tried to work something out with the vendor. The bobcat dealership said it was hard to start because of the low compression. No idea if the glow plug(s) are working. It was a month delayed making it to me and I had the first semi coming in just a day or two when it finally arrived. So no time to have it checked out. Was hoping to get through the contract and get it in. Once warm it is not a hard start. I did not note anything unusual in how it sounded once started. .</blockquote>
