Re: Engine coil light flashing
if you use the search tab at the top right of the screen and type flashing and glow plug and light ------ the and is important as it helps you search better. then read the topics and answers.
the age of bongo you have has a fairly difficult problem that some have really struggled to sort, if ive got it right the light flashes a sequence, you count the sequence which relates to a fault code, start by trying to read the fault code. it will probably be egr fault or turbo fault.
this model of turbo (variable vane) is very prone to sticking, it gets carboned up and affects acceleration, is yours affected with this.

Before you start chucking money at this problem by guess work (no offence meant) it would be worthwhile letting an experienced Automotive diagnostics Centre have a wee look at it.
