You better design a new controller card for that plan, the sock unit needs to see the voltage drop, to work correctly. You could just duct the exhaust from a small jet engine into your intake... Practical improvements are all thats needed. One wire, less than $2 and a few minutes time.

The whole reason for the resistor bank is to make a normally 12 volt GP system compatible with the 24 volt NATO slave start. You can simply rewire to 12 volts, rather than add a device to make 12 volts. The only time rewiring the GP relay to 12 volts might hurt you is, if your front battery...

Here's a link to some Wellman data. http://www.wellmanautomotive.com/pdf/go50.pdf The chart show the wellman tested was an 050, the only difference in the 050 and the 070 is the terminal size. It compares their GP to Bosch DS094 and AC 60G. You can see the the wellman does hold a flatter amp...

:roll:Oh great, now your offering legal advise!:-P

Kenny, unless your cucv goes dead often, it wont be an issue. I recently had 2 bad glow plugs. If mine was not supplied with 12v, I would have had 6 more to change and a truck that would not start at all. I just disconnected the red wire and taped it over. Made a new 10ga jumper with eye...

But... The 24 volts that is present, is only 24 volts until the relay closes and completes the circuit. At that point, the voltage drops to 12.5(unless there is a bad GP or connection). Any of the other brands of GP, should perform ok in this situation. The wellman 070 and AC13 were never...

The voltage is supplied to the top of the GP relay, all the time. It does not need to be cold to read your supplied voltage. At this point, it is a mute point what voltage you have. You simply need to choose what GP you want to use and have connector/terminals that fit them. If you want to...

FMJ There is no need or reason to convert to 12v supplied to the GP relay, to use the other brands of Glow Plugs. You only need to replace the wire connectors to a 1/4" wide female blade terminal. The wellman 070 and AC13 GPs are only 3/16" wide. (the original GP wire connectors are only...

Don't be confused. * Fact, the original cucv GP system supplies, 24v BUT, it goes through a resistor bank and that DROPS the voltage down to 12v, as soon as all 8 good glow plugs get the voltage(Yup, it's electronic magic) * The magic does not happen when one or more glow plugs are bad or...
