    M1008 Won't Start

    When my resisters went bad I changed the glow plugs that had literally melted inside the heads. The fried resister was only doing 6.5 v out of itself and 6.5v to each new glow plug. That is why I like the G60s. No matter what I gave them for voltage, they stay at a 10.5v each plug. If a plug...
