Alright I know, That this is not the first, and wont be the last, but I need help on starting.
So It gets down to -35 commonly here, and at 30 degrees my truck does not want to start. it started better this last winter, but that was when it was plugged in, and occasionally then it wouldn't want to start. I do understand that these trucks do not like cold. But I would like to be able to start it up to -10 or so. I am currently attending college and have no way to plug it in.
That being said, I really don't understand why it doesn't start better.
Less than 9 months ago I replaced the gp controller, glow plugs, wires to glow plugs, injectors, return lines ,ip, fuel pump, alternator, voltage regulator, basically everything around the motor. I even had it timed by a mechanic that I trust less than 2 weeks ago, all of these new parts have less than 4000 miles on them too! Basically I understand it is a diesel, and it doesn't like the cold, but I do need some dependency out of it for colder temps. I baby my truck and make everything right when I do something. I want to fix this.
By the way the wait to start light only stays on for 4-5 sec before going off, I don't know if this is correct, but any and all help would be great.
Thank you in advance, and if any more questions, feel free to ask, and please tell me what I can test or check
