I'm have been earthing pin 3 to use it so the car is warm before I start it

Glow plug has been tested and was found to be ok.

What values should I get if I test the water pump and fan?

Anything else I should be testing?

Seems repairing is more expensive then replacing

there are few things that can cause this.does the fan work ?is the water pump working? is the fuel pump ok?
faults with any of these will cause it to shut down.
i made up french mikes magic tester which is a bulb with holder.two bits of wire and two sewing needles.solder all together.then you pierce the live feed then place the other needle into the feed for the fan the light will come on and the fan runs etc.repeat the process for the other components before replacing any thing.or if you have access to a t4 put it on that i belive it can tell you whats is going on with these components.
