Cold Start Pictures anyone?

[ian2000t]

I think there is something missing from my cold start, or I'm putting it back together incorrectly.

Basically I've changed the waxstat for used one that the diesel shop said should be ok (cost me nothing). When I've put it back together how I think it should be and tested it, it doesn't do what I think it should.

When it's cold the wire coming out of cold start can be moved in/out about 2mm (like easily moveable under no tension). When it gets warm (in a tub of hot water) it's not moveable in/out at all. So... it is like the wax stat is trying to push the wire out when warm (back to normal non-advanced position).


Can anyone post any pics of theirs in expoded form so I can see if there is anything missing from mine? I've searched all over to try and find an exploded diagram, but can't find one anwywhere!
