The SD has been reluctant to start recently (in the "cold" weather
we have here) so I just checked on it. Looks like the rearmost
glowplug (#5?) is bad, I get open (OL) reading on the ohmmeter while
the others are in the 0.6ohm range. The glow plug fuse and relay
are OK, getting 12V across the fuse and at the relay pins until the
relay clicks off. None of the glow plugs seem to be warming up
though (according to my calibrated finger). Can that one bad glow
plug cause the others not to heat up?
I don't have a amp clamp, but if there is 12V at the plug wires at
the relay it should be getting juice to all of them?
I'll go out to make sure there is 12V at each plug connector to make
sure the connector didn't go bad or something.
That last plug looks like a bugger to get out too.
