    The plug in the second picture is a diode for the "water-in-fuel" circuit. It does not plug into anything. Now that you have had it running and know that it does work, we will work on some of the other systems. How is the parts supply for American vehicles? Can you get everyday items like...

    5) The trucks come from the factory setup with the Glow Plug system to be connected to the 24v side of the truck. This helps in a battlefield environment when jump starting the vehicle. The BIG resistor pack that is laying on the intake manifold allows the system to work. Many people will...

    Okay Jim. I reviewed the pictures and have come up with a few things to work on. 1) the fuel filter mounting base is missing the pressure switch. It is not needed. You can plug the hole and get it to work for now. Instructions and pictures are in the above links. Later you may want to install a...

    For the most part your truck looks complete. I will look over the pictures and make a list of things I see. The white plug is for the transmission downshift switch. It connects to the switch on the throttle pedal. I found it by looking through the wiring diagrams and matching the wire colors...

    Congratulations on the new truck. I combined your posts so all the pictures will be in the same place. Now to your questions. 1) Moving the battery cable has no effect. All of the terminals on the buss bar are hooked together. 2) The third picture shows that the holder for the Glow Plug...
