glow plugs

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 07-Aug-02 AT 10:49 PM (EST)]just wondering,

will I do any harm to my 1990 F-250 7.3L SC LB if I dont wait until my wait to start light goes out before I crank the engine over?

I only picked this thing up a couple of weeks ago and want to make it last as long as I can ...( Of course)

Thank folks!

Craterjoe

It will not hurt the engine, but it might make it a littler harder to start, becuase the glow plugs will not be fully warmed up.
