Heres what it does. In 60 degree weather if it sits for week without being used I can turn the key backwards , I hear the selenoid to glow plugs click then I wait about 10 sec. it will hit puff smoke and die then I repeat this cycle it will fire off clear rite up 5 seconds later no smoke. Then it will start at the bump of a key all day. It seems to start easier if I use it daily. My thing is what If I want to use it to clear snow I dont know if a block heater would help if it does this in 60degree weather. Also this machine has 2500-3000 hrs and in very good shape so I dont mind spending the money to make it right. This has no blow by and doesnt smoke when it shouldnt. Whats the easiest way to check glow plugs and injectors. P.S. I just did a complete service 10 hrs ago on all the filters and most fluids. Any input would be much appreciated.</p></blockquote><p></p>
