1997 Toyota Tarago GLOWPLUGS

Engine Mechanical problem
1997 Toyota Tarago 4 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic

The 60A fuse for the glowplug relay blows wnenever it is used. The engine will not fire without the plugs working. There is a chance thre last owner didn't change the plugs all at the same time and one does look different, without removing them.
I've tried up to an 80A fuse, still blows immediately ignition on.

Hi there,

Remove the buzz bar and see if it is sill popping fuses, (temp fit a circuit breaker to safe on fuses) check all glow plugs are serviceable, check that the insulation washers on the main feed are OK, start here.
