You can add a manual button pretty easily and give the GPs a longer cycle.

the blue capacitors are involved in the timing circuit,

Perhaps it is warmer than it was a month ago, so the GPs don't need to cycle as long? Also, maybe it lost prime after sitting for that time?

has smoke out the tail pipe. so its getting fuel. ill try another gp card if i can find one.. all esle fails i rig up a manual switch thanks

Just to get it going for one trip, you can just use a jumper wire with alligator clips, if you have an assistant. Ground the blue wire on the relay solenoid. No need for a switch. Yes, it's redneck, but in a pinch it will get you going, IF the GP card is really the problem.

Sounds like your GPs are not functioning properly. Some may be bad.

If you have a Soldier B, you can try an old school trick. Have him hold a rag over the tailpipe as you crank. This will hold in a little heat and help the diesel ignite. If no soldeier B is available, a potato wedged in the tailpipe also works. Just make sure the area is clear as the potato may come flying out.

Jump the GP solenoid connecters together for 10-15 seconds.Sorry Marcus didn't see your post

Is that like sending the 'new guy' for a can of squelch for the radio , or the key to the impact area?

With a 1009 would you need a soldier C also? Dual exhaust.Im gonna try the potato thing for sure.
