yo dudes i know its not a bus question but im sure one of you guys wouls be able to point me in the right direction.......workin on an audi 80 tdi....dont know if ive crossed a wire or earthed something i shouldnt but......now when you turn it on the glow plug light stays on for 20 odd seconds instead of about 5 seconds....also when it starts it ticks over about 1100 revs and wont drop,and also theres a bit of smoke out the back which never happens......seems like its over fuelling to me.....checked all the fuses,could i have fried the glowplug relay or is it something else,ecu etc..................
