Sorry fellas I thought I uploaded the pics, posted my thread and went and ate my dinner thinking I would have the answer when i got back. I beleive they are considered "Demilled" One has a broken switch and missing a couple knobs. Maybe they work, came from a police departement that got them...
Looks like they have a little damage. All I know is that the price tag on them for the military is $12656... I have no plugs or anything else.. well a couple of cool head sets with micro phones.
My truck was going to be a K9 police unit in Sumter SC. They put AC in one, painted etc and spent a lot of money on it. they decided it was too expensive and sold them all off. Mine came stock with 39k miles on it. $1500 bucks. I got a good deal.
PS You cops can extract the Hemp oil from...
I tried the ac60 gs and they all burnt out bc I think I might of had 1 bad connection... so when one goes bad the other get more than 12 volts. if 2 0r 3 go bad they get way more than 12 volts and burn up. UNLESS you bypass the resistor and wire the GP relay to a 12 volt leed.
So now Im...
Sorry I was a bit frustrated... I guess I need to do the "by pass" the resistor if I use the ac60s. i saved my 3 good wellmans BC someone said hold on to a couple in case you need them. i put the 3 wellmans in and the truck started right up. Im going to read up some more and try to figure out...
Did you bypass the risistor block and put 12 volts on the Glow Plug Relay? Because I didnt, I must have a short or a bad connection on one of the plugs. Now that i think about it. My glow plug relay started cyciling quicker than my first initial ac60 install. the GP relay would not click off...
DogHead you recomend AC60s in all of these posts. You are the act like the expert on glow plugs. i dissagree with your OPINION and now im on Moderation??? Come on.
Yes I verified the voltage drop
yes I tested the plugs and they were getting around 12 volts
The resister block got hot because it wasnt getting much use with 3 plugs working.
No I did not put nice clean conectors.. I have a very nice expensive bench grinder and followed several recomendations...
"AC60G glow plugs should(and do) work just fine with a completely stock cucv gp system"
This statement is kind of True... This is BAD ADVISE.... i just fried a brand new set of AC60Gs 30 days on a stock system.
Lots of conflicting opinions
I think using AC60Gs was a bad Idea. If you want...
I read on a couple of other posts that the AC60gs would jsut go in a stock system.... That 12 volt bypass was not nessesary ... i read that AC60Gs were "self regulating"
Well Im reposting here... they are burnt up/falling apart after 1 month....
lets make this clear @@@@
:x DO NOT USE...
I studied, read all the posts and went with the highly recomended AC60Gs and they are all burnt up. I read several posts that they would work if you left the stock set up. Said dont use wellmans... Some people on here have some strong OPINIONS...
i DONT WANT A PUSH BUTTON .
I DONT WANT TO DO A...
My AC60s are waisted after a month... I got 2 out and Im sure they are all toast. I got some bad advice on here...
i GUESS you HAVE to do the Resistor bypass and rig 12 volts to the relay or you are going to end up like me and wast 80 bucks on plugs.
I read that you could just put ac60s in on...
In 4 years I have'nt figures out anything creative to do with that bracket so i tried to get it out....(PB BLASTER) Those screws are so rusty Im going to have to drill them... Maybe I will leave it in for awhile and one of you guys will come up with a good use for it besides scuffing up my...
Ok 1 month later my glow plug relay is clicking off and on and my voltage is not dropping. My Glow plugs are not getting power.... exactly one month... was i supose to do the restor bypass with AC60Gs. What is it Now?
Relay?
Resistor Block?
Control Card?
Burnt up ac60s?
I thoght about taking a picture... it is right in front of you when your looking at your IP. Just wipe off the oil where the IP bolts to the Oil gizmo. Its right there on top...
I cant hardly believe that an Oil change fixed the problem. I changed the oil, added sea foam and some K1 to the...
Your not going to believe this.... I pulled out of my driveway after changing the oil, didnt have time to run the sea foam thru the system and It ran great. I forgot the last time I changed the oil...
So an OIL CHANGE fixed it.
Now my next problem...gremlins moved to glow Plug system relay...
I dont know what " lap all the mating surfaces" means... I keep reading about Marine injectors. I read apost about buying the marine tips for a 6.5l ...but then i read someone else said they dont fit so he bought 6.5l Marine injectors with a fine thread and was installing them. but the thread...
Im having PROBLEMS... I have been using pretty clean WVO... Tried some Waste moter oil and I dont think I cleaned it well enough??? Maybe its because I have a 26 year old truck. But I think my injectors are getting rough or my IP is starting to go... I will let you know.
(Speculation) I think...
