    glow plugs on deuce?

    emr, what proves fact? what you read in a book? (lmao) or what you have done/seen/heard/driven.......? i did not say that the 6.2 was DESIGNED to be a multi, i said it was capable. shure all diesels will run on alternates but the hardend H&R impllied something. i do agree with you on the fact...

    glow plugs on deuce?

    mud guppy, they may not have been classified as multi fuel but they are definitely capable of it, i dont think uncle sam would have shelled out the extra coin to have all mil-spec stanadine DB2 pumps outfited with a hardend head and rotor if he wasn't expecting these trucks to be ran on...

    glow plugs on deuce?

    that still dose not support your reasoning as to why glow plugs cannot be used............. the 6.2 dose not have as "gracefull" of an injection system, but is multifuel capable, it has GP's.........

    glow plugs on deuce?

    keith,......HUH? direct injected engines have a lower comp. ratio. The I.D.I. 6.2 & 6.5 engines have 20.5-22.5 to 1 ratio, where a D.I. 5.9 cummins has a ratio of 16.1. "A glow plug would cause issues with cold starting pressures in the cylinder head. At arctic temps, the air is very dense"...

    M1009 wont start/no crank

    Check the starter relay behind the dash under where the radio would be, its the metal one, usually mounted upside down so it dose an excellent job of collecting water.

    glow plugs on deuce?

    They suck, lol. Your deuce should start just fine with your intake heater. If you already have a block heater or don't have a power sorce for one, try adapting a intake heater from a 5.9 (6bt) cummins. And if I forgot to mention glow plugs suck !

    Lubing front locking hub assy

    i am w/ PWB. bearing grease is too thick. lithium grease is best, they may operate w/ bearing grease but you run the chance of them not fully engaging therfore making them strip out easier. lubing the sealing O-ring with bearing grease is a good idea though.
