[QUOTE="1gr8bldr, post: 63312, member: 7923"] Somewhere in that 750+ pages, I ran across "refer to ????? for cold weather starting". I can't find it now. My Bcat has always cranked easy. But the last few days, it has been hard to start and ran rough the first few seconds. The only time it cranked like it should, I noticed that the glow plug countdown restarted again so I waited double the time and it cranked as usual. So, I was looking for info on cold weather cranking or the glow plug countdown. Usually, the number starts about 3,2,1. But sometimes it starts at 18. When it starts at 321, this is not enough to crank correctly. Are the glow plugs still heating at this point, meaning I can just self time more? Or do I do something to get it to start heating again. When it starts at 18 is after it did not crank the first try. Up till last week, it cranked perfect, and the outside temps are about the same. So, just needing explanation on how this works [/QUOTE]
