[QUOTE="dwcrigler, post: 130899, member: 24122"] The glow plugs I installed were well worth $36 set as at least one of the old ones were dead. She now fires right up with the new set with just a 10-15sec warm up with the plugs. The smoke is still there but I don’t plan to use her more than a few hours a week so will probably hold off for a year or so and then buy a rebuild crate motor. I’ve seen a place near me that has them priced for $2750 + core. That seems like a pretty decent deal. If anyone know of better pricing or motor upgrade options for a ‘81 743 please let me know.
