Hey Guys,
If you have read this far thanks for reading and any input you may have. I have diagnosed my truck for the last 5 years and with the help of the manuals and this site.. so far ive tackled most things.
Yesterday i went to start my daily driver the M1009 and it would not turnover. It cranked and cranked but it didnt turnover. I have the Doghead starter relay mod in my truck sense i purchased it. The previous owner had done it himself.
I had one of my glow plug wires melt and cause a overvoltage/burn out of my glow plugs 2 years ago. I rewired the system and swapped the connectors to the 60g Glow plug. So i suspected the glow plug system first but i was unable to get it firing after installing new plugs. So i went on to change the fuel filter just to see if i could improve the fuel flow. When i went to prime the filter and i could not get any fuel to flow out of the filter housing thru the thumb nut on top.
What do i test next? Fuel sending pump in the tank? This is beyond my depth of knowledge.
