2/O is what was in there and that was tight up against the heat shield ,that 1/O I have is just to heavy to stick up in there I tried to fit it a couple of times. Mark

I asked Autozone & Advance about Bosch and although they both carry Bosch they don't handle their glow plugs, strange. Rock auto has them for like $7.47 ea. I think the total with shipping was $62.11 for eight of them, I'll have to check out Amazon. While I was waiting for the paint to dry...

Looks like I have one glow plug working. So how does AC Delco 60G's stack up against the Bosch Duraterm? I see Rock Auto has the Bosch for around $8 but there will be shipping on that, Autozone has the Delco's for $10. Mark

So then your saying what you have already said the glow's are dead. It Suck's when you buy a vehicle and other than the drive home its your pocket already and I hav'nt even had it on the road yet I hope the alt. is ok maybe the new battery will straighten that out, I think a phone call to the...

The way my meter works buddy is it will only register when you are using the prob's ,meaning if the meter isn't being used the needle is not on 0 it is resting on the other end of the scale so I really can't see what the glow is reading cause it look's like the needle hasn't moved I need to get...

I went out briefly just a little bit ago to do a quick check on the plugs. I checked from the glow body to the glow blade, I didn't get any kind of a reading. Kind of hard to watch the meter when your watching what your hands are doing, but if the meter did move it was maxed out at the other end...

Thanks Buddy wasn't sure how the test was done I'll do it tomorrow. After I pulled my batteries out I got looking at the battery trays and I figured I better pull them out and get some paint on them they were looking kind of rough. Mark

Yeah thats where I was getting the message was doing a quote. That sounds about right Buddy about 7 seconds on the glow plugs. Trying not to sound like a stupe here Buddy but when checking the glows with a ohm meter do you check from the wire to the blade end on the glow or wire to the glow...

Did you ever try to make a post and be told your message is to short? Well this is the third time I tried to post this probably something to do with AOL. Buddy thanks for the reply but I'm new to glow plug motors and wouldn't really know what a long or short time was but it didn't seem very...

Well I guess I learned something when trying to start a motor that has glow plugs don't use the boost. If the relay blows will the glow light still come on and aren't you suppose to get a code if that happens? I did find out that the pass side battery is bad, I don't think that just happened...

Well I finally got it started ,I touched it off with a tad of starting fluid, it started right up and sounded pretty decent. After it warmed up a little I turned it off and it started back up ok just like it did when I first brought it home. All the time when I was trying to start it I had...

Thought that looked like a 50 some serious fire power, Yeah I know Paul he lives just down the road from me, to bad he quit he was starting to get pretty fast. Mark

Thanks AK, I am not familar with these motors at all at least the ones that use glow plug's. I am familar with Mack diesels and if my Mack wont start when its 70 outside you've got one sick motor there. Mark

I just joined one of those liquidation auctions and there's a couple 6.2's I'm watching there. Mark

I think I'll plug her in for a little bit tomorrow and see if that helps. Glow light seems to work ok but I guess that doesn't mean their working. I wouldn't think by cleaning the motor off would have screwd anything up I hope its waterproofed better than that. Mark

Well my orange taxi cab looking 6.5 GMC won't start. Since I brought it home Aug 30th I started it up a couple of times to move it but other than it has just sat. What I did do to it was clean the CDR valve and give the motor a little cleaning with some gunk & the garden hose. It has sat for...

Well thanks for the welcome fellow Buckeye & Trumbull Countian don't know if thats a real word or not. Yeah your not to awfull far away that's for sure, that's nice country up that way, farm country. What the heck is that cannon that you have in your avatar, or is that just the tail pipe off...

Thanks for the walk through on the 6.2/6.5 WW looks like GM had all their top design engineers at the drafting table when they put this puppy together. They did such a great job on it they left the Japanese build the next diesel. Mark

So has any of the American General 6.5's come up for auction yet BK? Mark

So the military couldn't even get the General to build these motors any stronger even for them, as many vehicles and spare's that they bought off GM. Mark
