Cold Hard Starting
I read somewhere there is an injector shim kit to help eliminate cold weather hard starting. Could someone provide a link? I have already replaced the solenoid, but still have the problem.
Thanks

Glow plugs stays on up to 120 seconds,depending on temps.
Nevermind the glow plug light,watch volt meter or do a GP led mod.
Glow plugs condition?
Ohmed out?

I will check the o rings.
I go to the mountains camping during the summer and that is where I have problems with cold starts. I learned to plug the heater into my generator and then starts are easy. In the winter, living in the desert, temps rarely get low enough to cause problems, but sometimes on the coldest days, I just plug the truck into the house circuit.

You may want to make sure everything in your glow plug system is working. Here's a good trouble shooting guide
