Hi all.
The Bobcat starts great when I get the glow plugs. The problem I'm having is when it's warm outside, like 75-80 or more, even on first start, the glow plugs don't initiate. This results in cranking and a hard start. Is there a way to force the glow plugs on other than the usual which is the first position when turning the key?
Cheers

you could wire them onto a switch where you operate instead of the programed time and temp. settings. what I do not know is if the computer will like it not seeing them in the circuit.
