[Peugeot-L] update: 505td not starting

I have fixed it! It was indeed the glow plugs. Every last one of them were bad! I replaced them all and vroom! She started right away. Then I
noticed a new problem. When I was getting tools from the trunk I noticed my carpet was damp. It was my bio-diesel! I havent been able to
locate the leak yet. I removed the back seat (which was sooooo easy) to
view the back of the tank. Of course my flash light died 2 seconds after turning it on. Anyways I can see no visible leaks yet. I'm very glad its biodiesel leaking rather than petro diesel cause that would stink. Has anyone had a leaky tank in a 505? I have also noticed my fuel lines in the engine compartment have started decaying so I plan to
replace all rubber lines with viton hose to handle the bio-diesel. Does
anyone have a diagrahm of the lines? I'd like to buy the viton all at once and replace them in a day. A list of the length and diameters would be great. Well I must say the car is lucky I love it. I think most people would scrap a car that had as many problems as often as mine. My new list of repairs: Valve adjustment, finding the awfull intermitant clicking in the engine compartment, sunroof, hood, grille,
peeling paint, new trunk panels and carpet, new seat upholstery, new tank? all new fuel lines, man this list is long! I could keep going but
I wont. Thanks for all the help!
