    High idle solenoid

    I would look at your throttle cable, it may be sticking. The high idle is not that high(should not be).

    The card has a small hole in it. You can use a 90 degree pick tool to pull it out. Or you can just grab it with pliers if you think it's bad. Or you might be able to wiggle it side to side with your fingers, and pull it out.

    Dumb question

    Do not get rid of your oem alternator, rebuild it. For about $40 total, you can rebuild your original alternator. New, Chinese copies are not a good choice and many people have bought them only to find they are not isolated ground and burn up the wiring, because they did not test it first.

    Dumb question

    Nope... It's used for the M1010 only. Covered 100's of times. And, if you understood what the S and I indicate, it should NOT be an isolated ground relay. But, infact it seems some manufactures used the same plastic/phenolic case cover in both types of relay. Unfortunaletly that leads one...

    The blue wire is not used. Test/confirm your relay before connecting it(as described above). Position of the small wires does not matter.

    Non-ether cold weather starting solutions for the 8.3?

    Buy 6 cans and have enough for 10 years or more. Or, If it's cold there, you can be sure hand held cans of ether will be common too.

    Non-ether cold weather starting solutions for the 8.3?

    Ether for cold starting is available all around the globe as it is a standard item at truck-stops. Any highway route, should be easy to find it.

    gpr 109 is good, but I would confirm with a meter before installing anything. Just be sure there is no continuity between the mount and any of the 4 posts. I ran 8ga wire for years, no issues. No fuse.
