    To start or not to start when wait light is on

    Greetings to everyone, My wait light worked just fine the first day or two after all 8 glow plugs (Wellman 70) were replaced and a new GPR (ST85) was installed. Now the wait light stays on up to 1:30 before I turn the key off. I don't dare go longer for fear of swelling the glow plugs. When...

    NAPA ST85 vs. ST85SB

    I went to my nearest NAPA to get the ST85 Glow Plug Relay that was recommended on this site. It was $57. The NAPA guy said "we have the ST85SB for $27". He said it was the same part, just a different manufacturer. Will the ST85SB do the same job as the ST85? Please advise. Thanks in...

    Assessment of new TSL Radials

    M1009 TH400 Modulator question

    The GM P/N for the modulator valve is 359917. Does anyone have a good replacement source for these that still allow the stock line nipple to fit into the modulator nipple? AAP had a replacement, but the modulator nipple was not large enough for the metal vacuum tube nipple to fit. Connecting...

    M1009 Lights Work, Won't Start--Nothing when you turn key

    I posted early spring with this problem and am just getting around to my second attempt to fix this problem. Was running fine and while driving down the road, it just stopped running. All headlights, BO lights and turn signals work, but when you turn the key--nothing, no GP relay click, not...

    Electric Gremlin-- M1009

    Ok, I've followed the -20 and -30 and cannot seem to get any power when the key is turned to the run or start position. Any "new" advice is greatly appreciated. Here is the history. Truck started at Lejeune auction site. Drove it 5 1/2 hours back to Virginia with no problems. Have been...
