Well my starting issues are a thing of the past. OK here's what happened from beginning to end roughly . Went to Napa to get a new glow plug solenoid. I believe they gave me the civilian version. (My fault). started having cold start issues and the front battery getting low? Something to...

Great idea. I will add a few additional grounding wires/straps. Thank you.

Bone dry.

I hooked everything back up and went to both ends of each side of the glow plug harness. Each side reads 24 volts when the glow plug is cycling. Isn't the card supposed to regulate it to no more than 16 volts? Well my new card from Hill Billy Wizard isn't. Need to have a word with them...

OK here is the latest. went out and checked the voltage going to the Relay. Its 24 Volts. Not 12 but 24. I disconnected the relay wire on the 24 volt block going to the resistors and just ran 12 volts straight to the glow plug relay. Measured the voltage to the glow plugs and its 11.98...

I will check first thing in the morning. Thanks.

Will check and see if the bleeder valve spews diesel out when I get home. Last night I went out and looked at it and the two wires coming from the top of the fuel filter manifold (red and black) were completely chewed through. Are those for the "water in fuel" sensor?

For the Dana 60 rebuild. This would be the perfect time to throw in some 35 spline outer shafts.

Hi Guys and Gals, Well the beast is in need of some repair. Trying to recover my buried to the frame Campulance in mud with 150 of combined straps and Bow shackles. Well one of the 20,000 lbs rated straps broke and sent a bow shackle clean through my left rear door. The door was caved in and...

I hear they are looking for Submarine Techs........

Ive been to the junk yard several times trying to find the TV Bracket for someone. So far I have not found a one. I will keep looking. If I find two I will let you know.

Actually the 700R4 has a lower first gear (lower than the 4l80E) and I must say it has greatly improved the in city driving. You are correct about the Overdrive issue without a turbo. It definitely needs a turbo. Step Two.
