Ugh, my truck is being a pain this morning. Its even very cold, around 38-40, but very windy and a little rainy. It does not want to start, even running the glow plugs 15 seconds 3 times. My electric fuel pump is punping, i get fuel out of the air valve at the fuel filter. It has started to catch, like maybe on 1 cylinder a few times but falls back to nothing. Im guessing my glow plug connections are just getting worse. Unfortunately, there are no electric outlets where im parked at a Walmart. I carry 175 feet of extension cords, not that it helps me today. It's not sloping enough to coast closer to the store where there might be outlets. It's not supposed to be warmer until tomorrow. I guess I'm stuck here until then. Roadside can't help other than tow me to a repair shop. I guess it would help, i could plug in the block heater but that's a lousy use of roadside.
Any possible suggestions on other things to check? It was fine yesterday but it was 60 degrees or better.
