Made trip thru forest, that neighbour little elves and my short-legged wienerdog can take walks. We have some 25 cm of snow. And quick trip to local shop for few porters :) (MTs are bad on icy tarmac). Merry Christmas!

Thicker cables are must, and those originals are very old anyways. I dont complain 12V starter on my 1009, 1008 is same if not even slightly quicker...

I had it saved in computer:

Nice weather you have there. Here is slightly colder :D

maybe you can buy pump here if someone in US is willing to send core to Hilbilly? https://www.hillbillywizard.com/cucv-and-k30-parts/gm-diesel-vacuum-pump-rebuild-service/ Or here: https://www.accuratediesel.com/store/p/293-GM-6-2-L-Distributor-Drive-Vacuum-Pump-POD.html

Well, in our winters we get -25, rarely -35 and this is C, not F ;) I have pushbutton GP, never used afterglow, just let truck idle more on those cold mornings (block heater is big help too). Sure, original card would be nice but my wire loom is very neatly cut and isolated, i dont have card...

heh, on my 1008 i first checked this on glove box. Just after week or two realised that army replaced for some reason glove box door. Real VIN was different, probably options (hehe, options) too...

well, not good for us then (i´m not too great in electronics).

look section "Bijlagen" I dont know, what this means but there is Data sheet :)

same tag should be on glove box lid?

hmm - changing battery should not change drain amperage?

Squibbly, i found one easier than Arduino - with temperature sensor and lots of setting options: https://opencircuit.shop/product/Temperature-controlled-relay-12V-W1209 And again - i am not courage anyone to cheap hack-jobs. I just like to search such things. If it makes someones life easier -...

hehe, i dont have problem. I just wanted show, thah there is an option. It is still option, liked you it or not. My 1009 has button, works fine for me, 1008 card is probably fried but i have not touched this part jet.

I agree. But if you dont have $100+ card and even a socket, this is option. :)

Well, found this relay/timer on interweb. https://www.wehrle-electronics.com/en/trade/time-delay-relays/multitimer/4765_72902_shop_Multitimer-12V.aspx?LNG=en#!prettyPhoto Seems like small and useful upgrade for manual glow plug button?

And when you are there, take off fan also - sure those bearings need lubrication and inside some vacuum cleaning...

Well, army stuff. Whoever worked on that engine, took first set of pistons, he found. Thats why engine bored to max. Maybe he was carpenter or painter :D Big job but in the end you will be happy, i am sure.

--- he also showed us exactly what was not done well in the repair in 1989 and what constitutes part of the "damage" today. ---- what exactly?
