Default Glow Plugs

Yes, I searched...

I found that everyone used to be recommending AC60G's, but now are saying Wellman 070's. Also, everyone was saying buy from ssdieselsupply.com, but now are saying indusadist.com.

I need to order a set... Since indusadist.com seems to be out of stock, how are the ssdiesel ssd-070's? Are those the correct ones?

Thanks!!

BTW: Does anyone know the key cut code?

I didn't yet, but their website indicates they are out of stock on the 070's until at least 1/13... I'm heading up north on the 16th, and I need to get this done before then. If it will hardly start at ~35 degrees, it will likely never start at ~10.

I guess I'll go with the SSD..

Thanks!

I went ahead and ordered the SSD070's last night. Got a shipping notification this morning.. I'll let you guys know how long it takes to get them and how they look when they get here!

The are always listed on ebay and I just checked and now they are not so I believe you are correct on them out of stock.

Got my new plugs today.. Luckily, my trip up north got rescheduled for next week! Otherwise I would have been gone when they arrived, and I wouldn't have been able to take the '09 .

I just finished putting them in. Very easy! I broke my shoplight, so I did the whole thing in the dark, with the only light source a little miner's headlamp. Took about 45 minutes. I ohm'ed the old ones. 3 read ~1.5 ohms, one about ~14 ohms, and the rest infinite, the meter wouldn't catch any kind of read.

Here's a vid of me starting it with the new plugs. It's sat for about 2 days. It wasn't cold today, ~76f and it was about 58f when I started it. HOLY COW! What a difference! I usually cycle the plugs 3 times, and it takes about 10-15 seconds to start, with plumes of smoke. This time... Well, you'll see! (dark, sorry!)

BTW, the plugs in it were AC13G's. None swollen or broken, all came out very easily.

I am getting power to the plugs and the relay seems to work. I have a manual GP activation switch, but the truck won't start, even after it has been plugged in all night. Will start with ether. must be glow plugs

man, that video is depressing. It means my starter probably needs to be rebuilt, since my batteries are topped off and my starter doesn't really get that fast at all.
