glow plug times
does anyone have a chart on how long the glow plugs cycle at given temps. I have mine on a manual switch and dont know how long to leave on. I've been turning on when turn key on wait 10-15 sec and starts fine and leave on maybe another 5 sec.

You can use a little trial & error to determine what works best for your truck...

I've just been feeling it out long enought to start easy than a few sec after start to eliminate first rough idle. I just want to be sure no ill effects would come from not staying on long enough
