Karl, I tried to run it today when everything is cold. With the temp sensor unplugged. Glow plugs came on with wait light, both were on longer than usual,abuot 10 sec. Then wait light turned off, glow plugs stayed on, started truck easily. Then plugs stayed on about 40sec as you said. Wait...

Check the return line check ball on top of IP. If it gets clogged it acts like you described. Atleast on mine it did. Rebuild shop said governor was breaking down and clogging it. You can push the ball all the way out to get you buy for awhile.

Climber, All wires appear to be correct on relay. I unplugged the temp sensor and the glow plugs stayed constant on even after starting. But no wait light. Plugged sensor back in(while running) and plugs turned off but then wait light came on and stayed on even after idle dropped,about 2-3 min...

Alright. I've changed the rest of the plugs to 60g's. They were 13g. The solenoid was not consistently working so also replaced with a 85a continuous isolated type. And bypassed the resistor to 12v on first battery. Still only firing the plugs for about 4 seconds and wait light comes on when...
