Glow Plug Controller

[FORDMAN41291]

does anyone have an extra Glow Plug controller for the 6.9's available? I was thinking about making one of those bypass switches but I don't know if that is recommended or not???


if anyone does reply to this post or send me a PM


thanks for all your guys and ladies help

Ken, Most folks will convert to the 7.3 glow plug controller and wire harness if they want an automatic GPC. For those with the 6.9 style, your better off with a push button and a stop watch.

what all do I have to do to convert it to the 7.3 and about how much will it cost?

Go to a wrecking yard and look for a truck with a 7.3L GPC and harness. I have one that I'm putting on my truck. I will take pics of it later today so that you can see what you're looking for.

Dude, we really need to get you thinking outside of your box. Everything here gets done in public, so everybody can benefit. Pictures does no one any good but you sitting in your email.

As an aside, do you know that there are these things called web spiders (both commercial and malware related) that crawl pages like these looking for email addresses to harvest and send to organizations both legitimate and illigitimate, for the purpose of spamming? Putting your email address in clear text on a forum such as this, is the same as walking around with a "kick me" sign on your back. If you want to give out your email address, do it the smart way and write it kklein41291 at symbol gmail dot com. This way, at least a human has to translate it and no spider will see it.

I will post the pics here. I'm also going to take pics of the install completed swap when I find the time to get it put in the truck.

is this truck a hobby or full time truck?

Mine??? My truck is a daily driver, but I've been trying to do a bunch of upgrades to it. When I have the money, I have no time. When I have the time, I don't have the money.
