Went to start the truck today and got nothing but smoke and no fire. After ruling out air in the lines, GP not getting power, and no power to the IP, I pulled #1 and @ PGs. Both tested bad, so I pulled the other 4 I could get to easy, all but one was open. They are only a few months old. I'm guessing my GP controller is bad and doesn't cycle off while driving. It has always short cycled and gone straight to the after firing cycle of on and off. I bypassed the controller and wired a switch to the dash for the relay.
Can the controller go bad and fry all the plugs in one drive? It fired up last night. Tomorrow I'll be putting in new OE plugs and hope that solves the issue. IIRC its hold the GP 10-15 sec for a cold start in 40F temps?
I was going to try using the block heater for a few hours to see if I could get her running off that, but when I plugged it in I heard a gurgling noise. I didn't use it, has anyone heard that before?
