    CUCV manual glow plug switch install issue

    I found a really cool on line manual if anyone ever needs one. The read lines you see on the pages take move you around in the manual. http://brochures.slosh.com/cucv/tm9-2320-289-20.pdf or http://www.wheelindixie.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69 I hope this helps the next guy.
