How do I put this gently, you didn't accomplish anything except DISABLE the automatic functioning of the controller by breaking the ground circuit.
Now if you want to keep it like that it's fine. If you want to truly control the GP relay, reconnect the ground wire and follow my instructions above EXCEPT disconnect the white wire from the relay. This will allow you to control the length of GP burn while still disabling the automatic controller operation.
Don't worry about being gentle or sugarcoat anything. I stumble & fumble up & down the roads in my world anyway.
And I usually learn the right way
after I've fryed, roasted, or bent things!!!!
If I understand things, the way I did it only gives my GP burn length any controll by how long I press button?? I usually give it a 6-7 count or so.
Originally, the GP are designed to heat, then start cycling, even after startup?
What happens if they don't cycle? Other than continuing to heat inside the prechambers after start till things warm & smooth out.
Maybe I'm hurting things & didn't realize it afterall.....or at least, not helping things???
(I'll probably be back under the hood this weekend now.....be fretting & sweating all week....wet the bed or something
)
Gotta run. I'll ck back tonight.
