    Glagulator: I'm only going by what O'Reilly and Rock Auto lists as the correct controller for my RV that is a GM 6.5 turbo diesel engine. How are you coming up with a three wire ? They say three wire and the four wire will work. To cold and too late in the day......It's 30 degrees. I'll take...

    dbrannon79: Tried your trick for posting a quote on a reply and that works good. No luck with the thumbnail or large photo trick. Tried a lot of ways. I'm sure now it's because we have an old OS- Windows 7-XP. I think you have a more recent OS and have better features. But when I look at...

    Thanks dbrannon79!!! I really appreciate you're taking the time to teach me a new trick. Since it's late...I better try this tomorrow after I print your instructions and try it out for Will L. so he can enlarge a picture on his cell phone. Some companies don't want big picture. Always...

    I post a big picture and the web page must make it a "thumbnail" that you click on and it gets bigger. I only post pictures using my HP big desktop. Still looking for "insert full image" icon??

    Will L.... My pictures are real big and get bigger. I was afraid they were too big. I use a desktop and 17" laptop. Don't see how you post "using “insert- full image not thumbnail". Let me know and I'll post it bigger. I did find out you can't post pictures using the "Quick Reply" I'm still...

    This is the area where my recent question is about. This is the picture I wanted to show you asking about the glow plug wires. See the silver vacuum pump that says 4-22 on it. To the left is the goldish wastegate that says 4-22 on it. In between those two you will see a black rippled wire...

    Will L. and jrsovie: Thanks for the come back! I'll have to look into more about the wiring . Maybe GM will know but they might not have info for a 1996 engine wiring?! Nobody seems to have my log in /out problem. Do you know if you have a set time to be on? I don't want to stay on...don't...

    MrMarty51: Thanks! I don't need a wiring harness but I will bookmark those sites if the need comes up. Will L.: I must have written about the wires the wrong way. I don't need new wires. Let's try again about the wires.These are the original wires that were put on at the factory in 1996 and...

    See attached picture of the old 11G glow pics. (3a) After taking out the 4 glow plugs on driver's side.....I checked out the old 11G glow plugs and the new 60G glow plugs with a 12 volt battery. Both look to glow the same (see 4a + 4b). When plugging the new female wires onto the new glow...

    Big T: Something went wrong with the web page. It posted one reply I made twice and not the one above. Why I cut out the inner fender on the driver side.....it's a motorhome. The motorhome company buys the chassis . They build the motorhome body and then lower the motorhome body down on the...
