Put civilian 12 glow plugs in and take power from the passenger side of the resistor. When the glow plug board burns out put a switch. Mine starts in the cold no problem. I think I had 3 bad glow plugs when I fixed it
That’s nothing these 6.2 and 6.5 starters are made for this. If the batts can hold up got to keep cranking build some heat. Only other way is to add some laughing gas
No Problem for the startermotor nor the pinion since it‘s continously engaged and not going back and forth. The coils shouldn‘t overheat at this temp either.
Gutless old dog of a motor.. but they were pretty cool if you never wanted to pass anyone ever. Have an 84 C2500 Silverado with over 600k miles on one of these (w/ overhaul) truck still starts and runs no problem.

It will shoot epic flames. I once poured water from a cup in to the exhaust just because. I fired up the truck and it shot a huge load of soot water on the side of the white van next to me. That was embarrasing.

Good thinking, use the heat from the starter to pre-heat the motor. 👌
He DID say cold start...an that's how it works
That's how the old busses used to start, because they never had glow plugs back then,,
one way to say you have never had an old diesel.. the batteries and starters are designed for this..

It was powerful for its day. Nothing a little bit of mods cant fix.

Needs glow plugs
Need new glow plugs
Always amazed at people that run their starters for almost minutes at a time. You must reeeally not be worried about melting wires or burning it out.
I’m always amazed that people repeatedly bitch about this. Starters DON’T just fail from being used. And wires don’t magically melt. Get a grip and float back down to reality.
Starter is like 50lb of copper and steel... at -6F... hardly think it's an issue... assuming stock... 24V so 1/2 the amps as well...
Every car I ever had said in the manual you can crank an engine up to 15sec without hurting the starter
That has got to be the baddest ass thing I’ve seen today, it’s still the morning but I think we have a winner.
Prob one of the best turd engines built. Ultra reliable and gutless.

Thanks for the suggestions. This is a civilian truck, manual glow switch was one of the first mods I did.
It looked green like the 1008 or 1028. You can check the resistance of the glow plugs without taking them out.
Rip that starter
I think it's safe to use a starter continuously for about 15 seconds. I don't think he went any longer than that, so the starter should be good.
I've done way worse,no problems
