Diesel starting problem.... 700 19-- (don't know)

posted by  someone claiming to be Alex on  Fri Apr 6 03:39 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hi,

I have a friend with a 740 Turbo Diesel wagon that just cranks and cranks and cranks and won't start. He demonstrated it for me and was cranking for atleast 30 seconds and nothing. THe sound of the engine did change a tiny tiny bit (only discernable to people who know something about cars). Any common problems or is it just bad compression or a shot engine? Thanks for any help you could give us. Is it time to junk this car?

Alex
