Yeah...I saw a semi jack knifed in a ditch with the driver outside inspecting, I immediately slowed down (was literally only doing 60) and even then it still did a Lil zig-zag. I called it a night right then and there, currently in a hotel right now.

Theres plugs here thankfully, unfortunately though, there are none that are available.

Bought this for the 6.2 btw. Is it a good one? Room short? Didn't even open it yet so if its not a decent one, lmk and ill replace.

Yes, 12 awg is the smallest you want. If going 100’ then go up to 10 awg.

Your cold starts- cycle the key a few times:

Turn key on until glow plug light goes out. Turn key off, quickly Turn key on until glow plug light goes out. Turn key off. Quickly Turn key on until glow plug light goes out.NOW CRANK ENGINE.

That started quite easy.
I hope where ever You land that they use no car remover on the roads.

So much salt in MN, i desperately need to wash it this morning.

NY does use salt, ill be forced to get it undercoated, doesnt help that im right there by the coast, the sea salt will EAT it.

(Pic unrelated, Milwaukee is pretty nice. Next stop is Chicago)

I'm still wondering why your glow plug light cycles on and off with the key on. to me something isn't right like maybe the GP controller is tripping. Maybe @Will L. can provide some info on that.

I was wondering if it is that temperature probe from the back of the RH cylinder head that has the wire terminal broke off of.
