Yesterday morning at 14F I fired my OM602 off with only one glow-barely turned a revolution. Different from the other OM 616 I had which I would double glow in the teens and sometimes triple glow when the single digits arrived. I do have block heater on the 300D (OM 602) but don't use it or need to. On my current 240D I have a jury rigged manual GP relay system-Fred recognizes the relay as a Ford relay of some kind. Anyway I just hold the button for 30, 60, 90 or however many seconds-also can use it as an afterglow of sorts for a little bit. Dwight
Dwight E. Giles, Jr. 1978 240D 4 speed. 218K + miles. 1990 300D 2.5t 170K miles. Wickford, RI This a.m. it was 27 deg F. Glowed the '87 once until the glow plug relay shut off, then re-started the relay, let her glow for another 20 seconds or so and she fired up fairly quickly. Big cloud of smoke. -Max _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
