How long the starter will hold?

I'm going to play devil's advocate here. He cranks for upwards of 40 seconds, sure, but after the first 10 seconds or so the engine is trying to start. With one, then two, then more cylinders firing the starter is not running at full load but with just enough energy to keep the engine turning. Call it engine-assisted starter!
Yeah no. There's a fair amount of cheech already hazing the ground when the video started. I am willing to bet he was cranking that sob for at least a minute, if not two. IF the glow plugs were that shot. "they probably are". Should have just gave it a snort of either, and gone on the marry way.... Budget for a starter, because when they get nice and hot they like to stick next time you try to start the truck lol


btw I want my view back.
