no start
Okay to start off I'm new to diesel and I figured start of simple so I got a 87 6.9 with 91000 all original miles well all was going good for about3 weeks and it started acting like the starter would stick and try to turn over by itself so I did some research and found a bad solenoid and ignition switch so I replaced them both and then it wouldn't turn over at all so I tried to jump it and found I had a bad starter so I replaced that and now with the truck on jumper cables for over an hour it will not engage the starter I have power to everything but the starter will not turn any ideas? According to the volt meter I have 8 with the glow plugs and when they shut off it goes to about 10

Sounds like a battey issue to me, should have around 12.5 to 12.75 and about 11 glow plugs lit, if one battery has a dead cell it will drain the other, charge them both individually then test each individually
