    Glow plug resistors

    Oh yeah, and I was using a good fluke digital meter. The resistance was only fluctuating between .01-.02

    Glow plug resistors

    10-4 ! I did not know resistors only work under load but it would explain why the voltage would drop to 6v when glow plugs were on. Just kinda figured they pulled that much load to cause a voltage drop. Thanks Marcus. Much appreciated.

    Glow plug resistors

    While trying to diagnose a hard start problem I decided to bypass the glow plug resistors. Before doing so I took a voltage reading on it. I found that it only had 12V feeding it from the first battery in series. I believe it should be fed with 24v (correct me if I'm wrong). The wierd thing is...
