one last question

thanks to all that have answered my question on the glow plug relay. I will be replacing it tonight and plan on disconnecting the positive cables from the battery before installing the relay. I do however have the diablo predator tuner installed with the tow safe program. Will I need to reinstall the factory tune before I disconect the battery cables?
Thanks to all once again!

Have you tested your relay? I'm having a problem with my glow plug system and found out it's not getting a ground from the PCM. I'll have to chase out the wire and make sure all connections are good. I might just add a push button switch and control the relay that way.
