GP Controller

My fathers gp controller is no longer clicking after the wait to srart light goes out and will not start at +5 unplugged. It just cranks and cranks and smokes alot and eventually it starts. fuel system is good. I am not sure but this is the original controller and the truck has over 600,000 km on her
How much are glow plug controllerson average in cdn? Can the controller die because of bad glow plugs??

At Autozone the controller. is $130 US for a 91. I would change both (controller and GP's) at same time especially if they have never been changed.

Just go to www.autozone.com and just go in and tell it what truck you have and it will bring up the controller. At least it will be a good starting point.

For the 90 it says $126 US$

Wait it shows 2 different ones.... the other is $14 US$
