I tightened up the sparking bolt (negative post) on my shunt and that solved that issue, truck fired up perfectly and I checked and adjusted my voltage it was 29.3 coming out of alternator I set it at 28.4.
I shut the truck off and came back a couple hrs later to drive it to my Dads barn to clean connections but it wouldn't start, cranked over great, wait light acted like normal (8-10 sec wait light) but all she would do is crank, tried it again 40 min later still the same
I put it on the 24v charger for the night, I'll ohm test my glow plugs tomorrow, it's done this to me before but always eventually started and that was when it had been running and all warmed up for some reason I dont know.
Could my smart box be the issue?
Maybe it's just dirty contacts, will dirty contacts draw more voltage when warmed up?
I'll attach a pic of my smart box
Sorry for hijacking
