Glow Plug Controller ?
I tried a search, but couldn't find the info in needed. I have all new Motorcraft glow plugs, and my controller seems to be cycling properly. However, I think my truck isn't starting properly.
My question is: Is it possible the points in my controller are bad and my GP's aren't getting enough power to heat properly?
Thanks in advance!

If your temp is about 30 then the controler should stay on about 15 seconds. When mine went bad. The glow plugs wasn't staying on long enough to fire. Had to cycle twice or more - when once should have done it. Had to replace controler. Went to international truck dealership and got it cheaper than ford.
