The fire dept. told me that when they put in 12v starter, they had to change
glow plugs to 12v ones. He said he wished he never converted starter since
it was a bear to start in winter (no block heater either). I spent 5
minutes trying to explain that they already were 12v before and how the
resister worked, until I saw that glazed look in his eyes. It was just
easier to nod my head and say how I just hate when that happens.

Well.........why are you wasting our time if you know that
:)
Kidding aside, its amazing that it starts at all.
But it is summer.
As is, bet it gives you lots of griff once it gets colder.
Those plugs will not get that warm at all, even if you cycle
them 10 times.
>sense that I had to cycle plugs twice to get started.
>Thanx for the input!
Any time bud...stay cool!
