First of all an update on the 4 burned out glow plugs on my Caddy. Two
days after I replaced all of the plugs my son lets me know that he can
hear the relay clicking on and off repeatedly. Ah the culprit reveals
itself. So we replaced the glow plug relay and now all is right with
the world.
On another glow plug line, somehow when I removed the electrical guts
from my donor truck, I managed to NOT get the glow plug relay socket.
Any of you wonderful, smarter than normal and better looking than most
people have a heap that you use for parts that you can give up the glow
plug relay socket and wiring, just to the glow plug fuse would be nice.
Let me know and what you want for it. That way I can begin the
conversion of the Scirocco. thanks, Hayden
