Ok so installed the new glow plugs. The zd-9 motorcraft beru, but still no clicking anymore from the relay. This is a new relay and controller, could it have gotten shorted out from the other glow plugs? I have power on the double yellow wire. Also I noticed yesterday when I had it running...- pacman45

93 originally when I installed and heard the clicking I had power on the relay and at the glow plugs as the noise was clicking then I had power with a test light at the glow plugs. It was too cold today to try and figure that part out. Below 0 with the wind chill.- pacman45

Hi, So I am pretty new to the diesel world but have owned a couple in the past along with some heavy machinery. 1. What should the compression on a 7.3 non-turbo with 167000 miles be around? 2. I have replaced all the fuel injectors, seal caps and lines. Along with filters. 3. Batteries...- pacman45
