what is typical for glow plug timing? My GP light stays on for 5-6 seconds even when below freezing and always starts easily, but curious why it does not take longer to warm.
if my pre-glow time is 'normal' because such a short pre-glow time is not common among other diesel engines (no prior experience w/ CRD's).I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for....
You're right. It's not like older diesels where you find yourself waiting 20 seconds or longer when it gets really cold. The short duration light is normal. I believe the plugs will still glow without the light under certain conditions. I think Jon and others have knowledge of this.if my pre-glow time is 'normal' because such a short pre-glow time is not common among other diesel engines (no prior experience w/ CRD's).
based on responses thus far, it is normal. thank you.
