    Glow plug wiring.

    Have taken the truck on two 3+ hour trips since I replaced the GP control. I must say thats the best $100 I've spent on this thing. I havent had a single cranking issues since I replaced it, no more hot wires, and no more dead batteries. Starts everytime, and the relay immediately clicks off...

    non diesel: 1994 Ford Ranger 4x4

    Swapped a set of 31-10.50-15 Michillens on there. Even with the bad left side wheel bearings and the bad lower right ball joint this truck drives SMOOTH now. In its current condition I will take $1200

    non diesel: 1994 Ford Ranger 4x4

    This truck shows 251K on the odometer. I dont have the slightest clue if the engine or transmission is original. I was told the engine was swapped out and has only 80k. imo both the engine and tranny work to good to have the milege the truck shows. When I got the truck last week I drove it...

    charging system issues....help!

    I replaced my alt and my external regulator when mind did it, didnt change a thing. The new GP controller fixed it all. I still bet on that.

    Glow plug wiring.

    hmm. I unhooked all wires, then hooked them all back up in the same location. Everything worked fine for the 4 times I've started it since. Tommorrow I'm going for a 1.5hr one way drive. I'll see if the GP system works correctly tommorrow. If it does the next task is to change the IP.

    Glow plug wiring.

    My wires are correct according to the schematics. When I swapped relaysI unbolted the bad one, and bolted the new on and then unhooked each wire, one at a time and hooked them to the new. The glow plugs havent worked correctly since I swaped this engine in. I thnk the control module almost...

    Glow plug wiring.

    What wires do I need to unhook to kill power to the controller, while still letting it run? Its warm enough I should be able to fire without the GP's until I can install a new controller to see if that fixes it.
