GP issues

[Goofyexponent]

Ok, so I managed to fix the air intrusion last night.....$2 hose clamp and we're good!!!

I go out this morning, and fire it up....well, try to. White smoke rolling out of my stacks while cranking....no fire.

WTS light comes on, I hear the relay snapping on and off.....but no fire to the plugs......WHOO HOOO!!!! I got something to do while the hurricane is pounding on us Sunday night...

Any ideas?

Dumb question from a noob, but cant you run a jumper hotwire to get it started till you can straightenout the glow plug relay issue. Just a little wire to cross the terminals then hop in and fire it up?

Yes, yes you can if its the controller or relay.

Need a big wire/screw driver and some goggles if its jumping the relay time. Small wire is fine for tripping the relay. The plugs might be dead, volt meter or 12v test light will tell you.

Wouldn't surprise me if all 8 went bad...

However I am getting a 15 second glow on the WTS light. This is what gets me. I am going to get a brand new test light tomorrow and see what I come up with.
