    AC60 Fried broken glow plug / 12V resistor bypass

    Sorry Im searching.. but is this the temp sensor I am searching for? located drivers side front engine side block just under the generator with a green wire to it to the left of the first glow plug? here is a pic. I ohms tested it and got nothing.

    AC60 Fried broken glow plug / 12V resistor bypass

    Ok I will test the temp sensor. After I get my injector out and search for a tip. Just got back from the chinese tool store with a 30mm socket. Doghead do you think 30 seconds or 45 seconds of 10.8v fry out the new plugs.? Or better question. How long does it take for one of the ac60s to...

    AC60 Fried broken glow plug / 12V resistor bypass

    I love this site... Every thing i do to my truck, I come here and read up on it. I dont know if my resistor is bad bc i Just disconected it an put in my NEW AC60 Gs 12v bypass, cut off old connectors, put new ones on. Turned the key on, I cycled it and my plugs were being energized for about...

    AC60 Fried broken glow plug / 12V resistor bypass

    Thanks stonepicker..cool pics. Hope mine doesnt look like that. I guess your saying that your GP burn was a bad injector? Im thinking I burnt mine up bc of a bad wire connection on one plug and caused a cascade burn out. Maybe my resistor went bad. But from what I read with the 12v GP...

    AC60 Fried broken glow plug / 12V resistor bypass

    No I didnt use the TM .... I did the 12v to the GP relay. I am getting 10. something Volts to the new glow plugs. My Relay kicks on now for 20secs (im guessing) and then it went off and didnt cycle back on till i turned off the key and turned it back on. I will dig into it more after i take...

    AC60 Fried broken glow plug / 12V resistor bypass

    My BIG question is the 1/4 MIA tip. Did it turn to dust or did it fall off and bend a valve. I did some reading and i guess my next move is to remove that injector and see whats in there.

    AC60 Fried broken glow plug / 12V resistor bypass

    I think Im johnny worst case scenerio.... Im posting my pictures because you guys like pictures and so do I. Here are pics from earlier when i fried my first set of AC60s I only removed 3 burnt plugs and put my 3 good wellmans (one was a ac13) back in and drove all summer. Maybe I should have...

    Old bad Wellman 070 I Ohm tested all of them in the spring and replaced with the AC60s

    AC60 Fried broken glow plug / 12V resistor bypass

    The plug on the right is a AC13 G I dont know where it came from but i had wellman 070 and the oddball AC13. The AC13 survived the high voltage of running 3 plugs.

    AC60 Fried broken glow plug / 12V resistor bypass

    Ok I rplaced my glow plugs with AC60 G a few months ago and they fried in a weak. I did not do the resistor bypass... I put 3 good old plugs back in and have been driving all summer. Anyway Its cooling down and time to do the 12V bypass and replace all the plugs. Uh Oh! just pulled one of my...

    Glow Plug - By Pass Help

    Here is what i did. used a Red heavy gauge wire. Disconected 24V taped it up real good and zip tied it.

    running poorly, lack of power, black smoke, at higher rpm. sluggish

    Well All this work and I am getting a little more power but i think that is bc I turned up the IP pump. Looking back it might have all started with my AC60 plug debacle. I put in new ac 60 g plugs but did not bypass the resistor. All my plugs burnt up. I left them all in and today i am...

    Tank vent

    So how do you get water out of the tank? do you hook up an electric pump???

    Ok Since I had to do all this the hard way I figure I will share my experience.... It took all these tools to adjust the Injector pump 1/16 of an inch.... Tool porn for you guys... :oops:

    Oh What does this Vacume Gizmo do it is on the side of the pump I had to take a bolt out of it, rotated upward, Vacume lines look ok..... Does it have to be set a certain way? Is it vacume timing advance? could this be my problem? EDIT never mind I found it... Sets the shift points for the...

    Ok here is some wrench porn.... I bought long wrenches at Harbor freight, big help, I bought the S wrenches... Useless. My BIG problem is The IP nut on the Pasenger side is round now.

    Ok great so i got some Harbor freight specials... got the box wrench on it ...tapping with a hammer to loosen (sprayed with PB blaster 2 hrs ago) Now one of the nuts is getting rounded. Wonder if I can get a super long socket extension under the intake manifold? PITA

    Thanks guys.. hey Zero_cool, what is that gizmo picture on the right? I thought all I had to do was loosen the 3 flange bolts and turn the Ip a fingernails width toward the drivers side?

    I need a better clue than that...Where can I look online to find the right angle and bend in a wrench to get at the IP bolts on a 6.2l ?
