The first year I had Hammie the glowplugs went out. It took 2 days for Rusty to get me new ones. Temps averaged in the 30s that whole time. To get him started in the morning I'd run the blockheater for an hour and then drag him to the top of the hill in our apartment complex and roll down. If that didn't work we'd do it again. At work I just left him running. The day the glowplugs arrived it was 5F... I changed the 3 it took to get him going again and had my Indy change the last one. -Curt Date: Fri, 09 Dec 2005 10:54:22 -0600 From: "Kaleb C.
