I have a 1999 Isuzu Wazard that has a starting problem. On mornings the engine will crank but will not start. If you leave it for awhile and them try to start the engine again, it may start mormally. Once the you get it started in the morning the engine will start normally during the rest of the day. I have been advised by my technician to replace the crank and cam sensors as no code is showing up on the scanner. Please advise you my possible causes are, this vehicle has been doing this for the last six months, presently it is in the workshop as it refused to start two weeks ago.

Getting the Wheeling Fever
Start with the KIKI and check output power on glowup. If OK isolate each glow plug and check resistance. Also since it's unlikely that you'll have an ammeter capable of 20 amps, you can just touch the + probe of your voltmeter to the tip of one of the glow plugs...........the - probe to ground...........and you should see approx. 12V during the 30 seconds immediately following the turning of the key to the #2 position
