wayno Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 I have been trying to figure out why my SD engine starts so poorly lately, so the day before yesterday, I put new glow plugs in the truck, it started great, once. So today I went to one of the diesel injection outfits and asked them what the old glow plugs were, they couldn't tell me what they were for, but they said they were good, so I went home and started to remove the new ones and couldn't get them out at first, turns out the end of the new glow plugs blew up like balloons, just freak'n great, $80.00 plus tax down the tube. Put the old ones back in and will find out tomarrow if it goes back to the crappy start, but at least it starts, or a really crappy start that takes starting fluid to get it going like the new ones. BTW, I went to harbor freight tools and bought a diesel compression test kit, it worked on #4 cly. and then never worked again. Sounds like them glow plugs. I'm having a day of "one hit wonders", I hope this is not a trend/rut i'm decending into. wayno Quote Link to comment

Str8_69 Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 Found a cup holder at Vatozone that with a bit of Dremel mod, fits perfectly in the console tray of the 620 (Oics soon). Then, found a battery operated LED for the inside of my (temporary but necessary wintertime) can-o-pee that lights that bitch up like daytime inside. Then lost the clutch slave on the way home and did the dreaded tow of shame. :angry: Quote Link to comment
Guest DatsuNoob Posted December 11, 2010 Report Share Posted December 11, 2010 Crawled around under that ol bitch's skirt today measuring, bending, and running a fuel return line. I'm having alot of fun with the bender. It's only the 2nd line I ever made, but I have fun figuring the angles and watching everything come together. Makes me wanna redo ALL my lines actually :D Quote Link to comment
