Old Diesel Transit Campervan starts then stops?

Turn the ignition key to on, wait 'til Glow plug light goes out, turn key to start and the engine starts; release key and engine dies.

on old di fuel pumps you have a start stop solinoid when your ignition is on make sure thier is power going to it if there is power try removing it take out the plunger check in the hole for obstructions "sometimes things get by the filter" refit without plunger and try if this works you will need to stall it to turn it off
