Glow plugs on 81 5000s (Diesel obviously)
No matter if it is cold or warm outside, I usually have difficulty starting my 5000, if its been sitting over night, but in colder weather if it sits for an hour or two it wont start right away without starterfluid.
The problem is solved by starter fluid, would it be a fair assumption that it is my glow plugs that need replacing...
TIA
