Bypassed the resistors, added a Momentary On to ground the relay and Bam she fires right up after about a 10 sec push! Good feeling knowing the GPs work - which I didn't know since the gp control module is missing.
Now this M1009 has a push button to throw juice to the starter. Does that...
Okay, I'm a bit confused with the best way to use the push button for the gp relay/solenoid.
First we're running an 8ga wire fromt he battery to the 'blue-wired' post on the relay, bypassing the resistors.
For the gp control module bypass (which is missing) momentary On button modification...
Dadgummit I read that. Won't happen again Warthog.
RollTide12- Don't know that anything is wrong with the existing one, (your test should help answer that) but I thought I read on here where when routing around the resistors with 12v its a good idea to replace or rebuild the existing relay...

Anyway, thanks, good method to test. I am actually replacing the relay anyway because I'm planning to disconnect the gp resistors and pull an 8ga wire from 12v battery to the relay. From what I've read its a good idea to replace it anyway when...

Thanks!! Tons of great reading on here. The previous owner bought it to set on 1 ton axles to convert to a rock crawler from his K5 gas burner but quickly became scared of the glow plugs and that so I get it as it still sites. Body in great shape and no rust. Color is horrible green, someone...
