For starters I purchased this truck through a friend that worked on a Naval Base. When I got the truck it had a starter button and was also beening started with either.After reading some threads I repaired the starter issue by replacing the starter relay and the either issue by installing new Glow plugs and replacing the the glow plug card with a used card I had from a rust free military cab I had purchased a while ago. The truck was great for 2 years but now its giving me fits to get it started. I removed one of the glow plugs and attached a ground wire to it and turned the key on, the wait light comes on and after a while the relay under the hood clicks during this time the glow plug turned red from the tip almost to the end of the plug my question is as soon as the relay clicked the glow plug started to cool and did not stay glowing red which I think is a problem I would think the glow plug should have stayed glowing until after the truuck had started is this true? If so does that mean the glow plug card is bad again? Both batteries are fully charged and testing fine.
Thanks in advance for any input
