So I have switched the glow plug relay to a push button system and am wondering what the typical starting procedure is for the easiest start on these trucks in regards to the glow plugs.
Currently I am holding them on for about 10 seconds and then crank for 7 seconds or so and hit the plugs again. It will typically fire up the first try if it was started within the last 24 hours and on the second try if it has been sitting a week or so.
With the colder weather coming on though, thought I would check and see if there is a better procedure. And I don't want to be doing something that will be burning the plugs out either.
