Nah – Glow plugs are BRAND new….with a new relay system to a toggle switch on the dash.

Before the hard start got really bad, it would fire right up, then rough idle high for a second or two, and then die. I would then have to crank the shit out of it for 10 seconds or so to start it.

Once it was up, it would go.

I’m all over that air purge valve. I’m actually headed out to put the battery back in (killed it trying to start the damn thing…) and I’ll see what comes out of the bleed valve.

Thanks everyone, I’ll let you know what goes down.
