    My New to me K-2500...

    it is a 95, and I can get $700 for it driving it into the pick n pull here... I am going to run it by the trans shop in the morning and get them to scan it with the proper scanner, I figured it is the input speed sensor as well (blew the output speed sensor on the 93 1 ton last summer). vac...

    Replaced all eight glow plugs with Bosch Duraterm 80034. Truck starts like a champ now almost instant usually around a 1/2 a rotation. I also ended up replacing the fuel heater seal and the water in fuel sensor o-ring as before I did the glow plugs went to start it one day when it was in the...

    93 K3500 No Cranky....

    flashes during crank and also after the truck starts... takes a little bit for it to start flashing during crank. I think I will be doing the glow plugs this weekend on it.

    93 K3500 No Cranky....

    replaced the ops and the glow plug relay... still have a hard start issue, but the glow plug light goes out a lot quicker now and then flashes after you start cranking.. not sure what that means.. the lift pump now runs when the engine is shutdown runs for a at least 30 seconds maybe longer...

    93 K3500 No Cranky....

    thinking it may be the glows as well.... so looks like glows and probably do the glow controller just to be safe. are the instant heat ones from SS Diesel any good or would a standard replacement be good?? I am in Edmonton Alberta Canada and we can see temps down to -40 and sometimes colder...

    93 K3500 No Cranky....

    I got it from a guy who got it from the company so not sure on the exact reason, I was told it died and they couldn't get it going again so they just replaced it. from what I can tell it looks like they ran it out of fuel and air locked the system. But until I get it running I dont know what...
