Read the article at the following address and work through the checks. Make sure that all the electical connection between the battery and starter are clean and tight, not forgetting the earthing strap.

The manifold heater is intended to be used in conjunction with a primer pump, igniting the Diesel fuel injected into the manifold which causes warm air to be drawn into the cylinders.
