Rough Idle
Cold starts seem to be real rough. Engine lopes like a huge cam gasser.
Seems like it's only firing on a couples cylinders, then clears up and runs fine.
Glow plugs again?? Just did them last year for first time in 230,000 miles so i'm thinking maybe something else?

Did the cps about a year ago so not in any hurry to go in for the recall.
But may do it soon and just have a scan done while I'm there and see what comes up.
