    The glow plugs and Truck are original (I think) & have a little over 28,000 miles on them. How long (age or miles) are glow plugs good for?

    M1009 takes 3-5 tries to start when NOT started in 1-3 weeks.

    Hi All, I'm new here. I have an 85 M1009 that doesn't want to start when left setting for 1-3 weeks. I have to cycle the key 3-5 time before it does start. I am waiting on the wait light to go off, But the truck just wines over & over without starting. Any thoughts on what could be wrong?
