Default ongoing problem HELP!!!

hi i have a 1998 voyager 2.5td ,the problem i have is that it randomly cuts out the glow plug light flashes ,switch off ignition then it will start first time and maybe ok for the rest of the day or weeks or it may do it a couple of times the same day,seems to do it when slowing down like today my wife was stopping at some traffic lights it cut out and has been fine for the rest of the day
i have changed the crank sensor it has been just over week since changing the sensor,also have pulled on the loom with it running couldnt get it to faulter
iam a bit reluctant to have it plugged in at chrysler for them not to find a fault ,i have tried the dash menu but no stored codes and have had it plugged into a solus scanner again no fault stored

thanks for reading

dan

it did cut out again last night,today it has been fine
i have been through a couple of earthing points and cleaned up,checked plugs and the loom
if i dont get this sorted it will be going to the crusher before it kills me or the wife
found a few other posts on other sites where the same problem has occured but no one has got a solution

i had the fuel actuator adjusted today ,seems to run a bit better bit more power probably down to putting the fuel up a bit ,will see if this cures it......or not!!!
the guy at the diesel place i took it to was really good ,he suggested trying this before a new actuator is ordered
(these can be changed in-situe how many diesel places will tell you that!!!!!!)
possibly a pump rebuild but he thinks the pump appears ok
