Are you looking to see if the whole system work or just checking the actual glow plug? If just the GP, don't bother. For the cost you may as well just replace as maintenance.

Stabilizes combustion until the diesel is capable of igniting on its own by compression.

Pay very close attention to the GP circuit. Your controller may be coming on randomly. You can try to guess at the problem but you need to get some volt readings on both batts before solving the problem. Good rule of thumb with any truck that has a questionable past is to change all the belts...

Wait! When is it acceptable to sell a simple locking hub without a clause like "it requires a stupid procedure other than turning from the lock to unlock position" in order for the product to work? Return them and get Warn hubs. That is a joke and speaks volumes about the quality control and...

I couldn't tell you if the tread pattern is different between the civi or military version. Don't forget that the treadwright tires can use any carcass. The tread is the MTR pattern put onto a donor carcass. I do not know how treadwright doesn't get sued but the Guard Dog is not the 'same exact'...

Sorry to hear that! I cannot stand to hear about poor customer service and businesses need to be smarter than that in this electronic day and age. For one, I agree your mechanic should not be doing work for free regardless of the part quality...the man needs to get paid. The dealer or parts...

Unfortunately...people nowadays are just plain stupid and drive way too fast in their traction controlled street treaded SUV. Too bad you are unable to chain up because you can pretty much do whatever you want with a good set of chains except run really fast down the road. Sounds like your...

I've had that Goodyear MTR pattern tires before and I loved the tread. Was excellent in everything except big rocks or thick mud. All around an awesome tread pattern. I've also had plenty of Treadwright tires before and wouldn't hesitate to buy from them. I think once my MT's wear out (if that...

I will tell you that a rear Detroit and front LSD keep you awake at all times. Obviously the traction they provide when you put the skinny down is superior to open diffs but they will also not think twice of skidding you into a ditch much faster than the open diffs will. I would prefer them but...

I could have swore I posted my part numbers for building it but I bought two small heim joints from McMaster Carr for each end. Then I got two pieces of tube of differrent size. I bought bronze inserts so the two pieces can slide into each other. I welded nuts on each end so the Heims thread...

The 37" Goodyear MT is a great all around tire. Having said that...they suck at doing anything well, light snow being one of them. I think a few of the reasons why so many people run them including myself is the durability factor and the price point. If they cost more than $75-100 each, most...

Check bulbs and contacts...the ground may solve the issue but this is pretty common stuff for these old rigs.

C-clips and crush collars...all created to cut costs and reliability. Although I can't say too many bad things because the 14 Bolt has a crush collar. Then again, you can remove the entire pinion housing and work on it off the truck. What a great freakin' axle :)

If there is no witness mark they either measured the pinion preload (very rare someone does that) or counted the turns of the pinion nut (more common but certainly not preferred). I would throw a yoke and a new seal. I can't count how many times I've replaced seals for them just to leak again...

See if it has play first...

Do you have any visible fuel leaks? You may also want to spend some time replacing all fuel hoses and making sure your filter is not bleeding air into the system.

Probably needs a yoke due to heavy groove on seal mating surface. Another probability is that since it is a crush collar pinion bearing setup, the shop screwed up and now you have serious problems. Does the yoke have any play? Also, do you see any markings on the pinion nut? Replacing pinion...

You have a lot more reading to do if you are trying to ID the pump, cool the engine down with water, and thinking it's a 12v problem. We will need lots more info to troubleshoot.

I would just loosen the bolts up enough to wiggle the pump. I think it will be fine.
