Since I am here anyway, I might as well tell ya I put another set of glow plugs in yesterday. The truck sat for about 2 weeks while I waited for them. It was my own stupidity that killed them (yep, again! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />). It was the day after a nasty snowstorm, and it was fairly cold out, -11C and blowing hard. I glowed it once and it wouldn't go, ended up doing it a couple of more times after that (not without a starting attempt in between), and realized I had killed them. The problem was I was holding them for a 5 count lately, instead of a 3. Little too much, I think. With the new ones, I do a 2 count and so far it starts better. I may have had a dead one anyway. At least they weren't swelled on the ends, like the last set before them 2 years ago, when I REALLY cooked them, which was before I realized they are 5 volts and not 12. Live and learn. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />
Geez, you'd think I would have learned by now! At least my new supplier sells them cheaper. Around $15CDN for me. They are AC, not Bosch, if it makes any difference.
I'm glad to be driving it again. I missed the pokey little diesel.
