Of course, if the low resistance is caused by an internal short you
probably aren't going to benefit.
That's what I'm thinking is going on with mine. Bad glow plugs that
don't get hot enough and block heaters that pretend to work but don't
seem to be fairly common complaints with the Cummins 5 Liter in the
Titan. Apparently Nissan, in their wisdom, shipped them with 10W-40 oil,
which is way to heavy for Canadian winters.
Hopefully it's teething problems with the engine. This is why I leased
this one rather than purchased it. If the Cummins turns out to be crap,
I'm not stuck with it.
The dealer has already indicated that they will move me over to a gas
powered truck if the Cummins doesn't work out.
