Stuck in the Driveway

[8v-of-fury]

Sometimes when the glow plug relay fails it will trigger the glow plugs on while driving which will burn out all four in short order unless they are duraterms. 

And then it doesn't happen.. ever lol.

cold flow? There doesn't have to be ANY FUEL flowing, as long as the pump is full of fuel, and the injector lines are primed.

other than correcting your language to me and my direct reply(too bad you didnt see that, dont worry you'll get your chance)
what are you even talking about?? you dont need fuel flowing? if fuel doesnt flow you dont go. if it gels you cannt go either, thats where cold flow improver will help, for you; to clarify; power service anti-gel/winterizer is a cold flow improver. this will lower the gel point of fuel and help from pump freezing/gelling on cold days.
dont call me out of name by ways you dont even know, you'll be hearing from me on that..

  I use a big ol ford starter relay for my glow plug relay..hasn't failed me yet..Can also hear the click really nice..

Click? more like CLUNK hjaha

[ORCoaster]

Clunk indeed.  I have had people look really long and hard at me when I jump in and hit the key and it goes clunk and I am happily seat behind the wheel.  They are just about ready to offer a jump and I crank it over and Varrooom.  I would like to know what they think at that point as there is no second clunk that they hear.

Works good, I like it.

Warming up the turbine! Oh wait.. you're Naturally Aspirated.....

My k03 spools with just the starter! LMAO

My truck overcooled as I got to the top of a mountain the other day.  I noticed, because the glows started cycling.  i din't want to burn em out, so i unplugged the relay, and went to work.  I figured my fan clutch was seized.  After finishing my job, I go to plug the relay back in, and give the fan a flip.  it doesn't go far, but a glint catches my eye.  Ooh, shiney alternator pulley, no belt.
There is the belt, tied in a knot around the fan clutch LOL.
it must have been my lucky day, because I had a spare in the tire well.

Alt belt wrapped around the fan clutch? What fan clutch? 

[745 turbogreasel]

Truck is a GM 6.2, and has a cluch fan, I just thought it was a pretty funny mechanical failure, and sweet that I didn't  need an alternator.

 People are nicer where you are at.
 When people around here hear the clunk they look the other way and walk faster,..
 oh no he might need help, better get out of here before he asks me for a jump, ha.
