[Vwdiesel] Subject: wanted: glow plug relay harness

[Area31 Research Facility]

Steve,

That is exactly how I am going to wire the glo plug controller in my yet to
be finished VW genset.  No control box yet so to start I clip the fuel
solenoid to the battery and then touch the glowplug lead down firmly while
using another clip lead to engage the starter solenoid.  I cannot eat an ice
cream cone and start my genset at the same time. :(
