[Vwdiesel] Ford diesel hard starting

[Harmon Seaver]

   Seems like the problem was only the batteries -- or actually just a corroded
terminal on one. While it seemed to crank okay (has two batteries), the voltage
was actually going down to 9.6V after the glowplug draw and cranking. The
computer on this thing cuts out at 10V. So no fuel. 
   Wonderful technology, eh? Does anyone know if the VW TDI has this same
"feature"?
