When a diesel engine is cold you should wait for the glow plug light to go out before trying to start the engine. The same applies if you travel such a short distance. Diesel fuel needs to be 'warmed' before it will burn. Once the engine is at normal temp you have no problem.

 

thanks but i do wait for heater plugs i could go hundred miles but when the temprture neadle is half way between cold and normal running tempreture the problem starts
