    Do you have proper fluid levels in your trans? I had this problem once and I added Dex III until it worked.

    Balancing 12 bolt wheels?

    I ended up with buying centramatics. Huge difference, wheels may be slightly unbalanced but its not enough to cause trouble. The beads are nice but a pain when you're changing tires.

    Gen 2 Very dim. Relay?

    OP, The glow plugs coming on and off could mean that your some of your GP's are fried. Are they still 24v or have you done the resistor by-pass. The GP control card will do that to prevent the other GP's from burning out too quickly.

    best place to buy replacement glow plugs

    If a GP burns out it will increase the voltage to the other GP's causing a cascading failures of all GP's. Switch them over to 12v you won't have this problem. (But your GP will now only go off of your front battery; instead of both.) I took my resistor off and switched my GP's to 12v.

    Troubling Glow Plug problems

    chattering when you turn the key to start the engine would be the starter relay. But If you're turning to just activate GP's then its most likely the gp relay (st-85 at napa)
